18 Apr Year 1 Learnt about Professor Brian Cox in Science Week
This week, Year 1 have been learning about Professor Brian Cox. 1 Ofili learned that he is incredibly interested in how the the Universe was created, Solar Systems and planets. 1 Ofili learned that there are eight planets in our solar system and ordered them correctly in relation to the sun. They demonstrated this to the rest of the school today in our Science assembly.
Year 1 Riley learnt who Professor Cox is and that he studies ‘the universe’. There was lots of discussion and sharing of ideas about what the universe is, the milky way, the solar system, the sun, the planets. We then focussed on finding out about the Northern Lights ‘Aurora Borealis’ and described the images, as seen from space and from earth.
