An aerial view of Sycamore Class

We have been continuing our learning about Space and our Solar System.

We have learnt about the different planets in our solar system and made up chants to help us remember the order of them! 

Did you know there are 8 planets? Pluto used to be a planet but it isn’t anymore! 

Can you find out what it is classified as now?



We then looked on the NASA website and learnt about satellites by looking at aerial photographs of the Earth which were taken from space. We found it tricky to understand what an “aerial view” was so we took our very own aerial photo of Sycamore class!



We then explored different aerial view photographs taken from space and tried to use our knowledge of continents to locate specific counties. We managed to spot all seven continents by looking at the shape of the land!
