This week in Year 1 we have been learning all about the solar system. How many planets are there? Which planet is the biggest? Smallest? Hottest? Coldest? These were just a few of the questions we discussed as students discovered all about our solar system and the mysterious planets.
We learnt about how the planets orbit the sun and students pretended to be planets themselves whilst walking around the sun. Students then had lots of fun through completing a word search and one very clever student even found the word ‘sun’ twice! The Year 1 students have been fantastic and have memorised the names of the planets as well as the order they go in.
