Today, primary 1 had a chat about their brand new topic. Now that we have finished learning about dinosaurs, we are very excited to find out what we’re going to be learning about this term.

We are beginning to learn about the sun, moon and stars, and night time animals (very big topic!).

We already know quite a lot about this:

• Flynn – I know that the moon is in space and astronauts can go on it.
• Shay – the stars are shiny.
• Lara – The stars twinkle.
• Gabrielle – Stars are actually out at day time.
• Kyle – the sun shines in the morning.
• Gabriel – The sun makes you hot.
• Thomas – The moon is far away from the sun.
• Liam – The moon changes different shapes, it can be a circle or a mouse shapes .
• Racaab – The stars have spikes on them.
• Freyja – The stars are always in the sky but when it’s morning the sun is too bright for you to see the stars.
• Niamh – The sun is bright in the mornings.
• Niamh the sun comes out in the day.
• Lucas T – the sun goes down in the night time.
• Safaa – the stars come out at night.

Here are some of the things we want to learn about:

• Has anyone ever been on the moon?
• Oliver – is the sun a star?
• Catherine – how does the moon turn into different shapes?
• Lara – what kind of colours the moon can change to?
• Zophia – why does the sun only come in the day?
• Flynn – why is the sun so bright?
• Liam – I want to see what the earth looks like from space?
• Gabrielle – why does the sun begin with S?

We are very excited to begin finding out lots of new things, and we will keep you updated with our fab work.
