‘We try to follow Jesus in everything we do’

Our Solar System

Lesson: English

Class: Miss Kehoe - Rec 2 Year: 2017 - 2018

In our big book sessions this week, we have been learning new facts about planets by reading a non fiction book called Our Solar System. 

The children have been really good at remembering fact about space, especially planet names. 

Today we decided to focus on the order of the planets in the solar system. Children were chosen to represent the planets, the sun and some stars. The child who represented the sun stood in the middle of the room and the other children walked around them just like the planets orbit the sun. Children who were the stars stood in a star shape and moved around the room i.e the galaxy. 

We then watched some videos and songs about the order of the planets.

When you pick your child up from school, ask them what they know about planets. They will amaze you. 

Well done reception.
