The Earth and Beyond

We used Chromebooks to research facts about the planets in our solar system: diameter, moons, distance from the sun, temperature, length of day and length of year.

We compared the names of our planets in 4 different languages: Welsh, English, Spanish and French.  We made good use of Google translate and discussed similarities and differences in the languages.

We drew a diagram of our solar system showing the order of the planets from the sun and their relative size.

We watched a video and looked at diagrams explaining Day and Night.  We discussed the meaning of the target vocabulary and wrote an explanation in our own words.

Some of us read a text and used the target vocabulary to fill the gaps to complete an explanation of Day and Night.
