On Thursday 15 October, 5M will have a science day about the solar system.
During the day, the students will explore our solar system through scale and measurement. Working mainly in pairs, each group will be assigned a planet and will calculate its distance from the Sun and its size, both to scale. All the pairs’ work then comes together into one large walkable model of the solar system, which the class will present at the end of the day.
The collapsed day will be held at school, so snack, lunch and the afternoon programme will take place as usual. Afternoon programme will start after lesson 4.
Please make sure your child brings:
· Pencil case
· Calculator (if available)
We are looking forward to a fun, hands-on day of learning about our solar system.
