Planet's Research

Hi everyone, 

Here are the guidelines and information about our next project.

READY... SET... BLAST OFF!

This is a big project. You will work both at home and in the school. You will be working individually and in groups.

First things first...

1- You'll take home today (Friday - October 07th., 2016) an inquiry worksheet.

2- You'll choose a planet of the Solar System to research about.

3- You'll fill out your inquiry form using as much information as possible about the planet you chose. 

4- Please bring your inquiry page back to class next Monday (Oct. 10th., 2016).

Next steps...

Later, in class, we'll be sharing our findings in small groups.

Finally, each group will prepare posters about one of the eight planets to present to our friends.

As a class, everyone will also be compiling the details of each of the planets to make a comparative analysis of the planets in our solar system later on. 

So... Are you ready?

Here are some helpful links to you:

The Vast Universe...

Hey kids,

Here is a video that may help you find more specific answers to some of your previous questions.

Pay close attention to it and learn more details about the beginning of the UNIVERSE.

Use the 'comments' to write little notes of interesting facts you have learned this time or just keep posting more questions here in the blog.

Hugs,

Ms Taty

The start of it all...

Hey kiddos,

Our new PYP unit - 'How the world works'- is an inquiry about the universe, planets, starts and much more.

So... let's start it by discovering a little more about our UNIVERSE! 

  .... How was it made? What is it made of? Where are we, really?

Check out the video below and leave a comment here telling us what you have discovered about this vast place called Universe. 

You may also post questions you might already have about our next PYP unit topic!

Depois de assistir o vídeo e deixar seu comentário aqui embaixo, faça sua representação sobre a origem do universo na folha A3. Lembre-se que esta pode ser através de um desenho, colagem, pintura, etc. 

Traga seu poster na segunda-feira! Os comentários serão também socializados neste dia.

So... want to become a universe expert? Start now!

Enjoy!

Hugs,

Espaço Ciência

Our field trip to "Espaço Ciência" was wonderful!

Children learned a lot more about the Universe, planets, stars and constellations inside the observatory.

They also had the opportunity to take a closer look at the VLS ("Veículo de Lançamento de Satélites") and space rockets during the workshop about ROCKETS. Children used PET bottles, air, water and their own strength to make their play rockets fly through the air. Two teams won first prize!

We are pretty sure this was one of the best classes of the semester!

Enjoy the pictures...

Hugs,

Ms Taty
