Collaborative Earth and Beyond - Digital Bus Stop Task

 LI: To activate our prior knowledge about science, earth and beyond. Today Me,Suila and Leon collaborated by completing a Bus stop activity to activate our prior Knowledge which is what we already know about a certain topic. We were to complete each slide as quickly as we can because each slide had a time limt of 2 minutes. For the first minuet we were not allowed to talk but we were to add our facts on what we knew about space. We then got to watch a video to help us bring more knowledge on space. This was all to build on our knowledge.

Stardome Trip

This term our Inquiry topic was Space. To learn more about space we went on a trip to stardome at night. We first enter a room that was round. We then watch a live show. The show showcased the different constellations,stars and moons. We observed Scorpion,Sagittarius and Maui hook. We then observed the different moons of Jupiter. Did you known that Jupiter has 96 moons. After this we then looked at Saturn. I learnt that Saturn rings are made out of ice particles and also dust. I thought that they were made out off gas and asteroids. After the Live show we got to look around stardome. There were Lego rockets like Sputnik 1,Vostok 1 and Apollo 1. My favorite part was seeing the astronaut food. Did you know that the astronaut foods are in cube and are covered in a thick coat of gelatin to reduce crumbs that might damage the rocket. This was such a fun trip and we would like to thank Stardome for this opportunity.
