Lost In Space

One small step for man, one giant leap for Reception! This topic we have been learning about space! We have focused on finding our place in the universe, the differences between the planets, what we see in the night sky and who lives in space. We have learnt all 8 planets and the features that make them different. 

We had a fantastic role play area where we could pretend to be astronauts in our very own rocket! 

We learnt about constellations and used Ipads to search for them in the sky!

We used virtual head sets to look at the similarities and differences between the natural world around us and contrasting environments. We discovered the deserts and polar regions and even had a go at going into Space! 

And we finished it off with a fun trip to the Science Museum!
