Our topic for this term is Outta this world, we are learning about the things that happen in outer space. Yesterday our class room 21 made an experiment with balloons, the balloons represented the sizes and looks of the planet’s including the Sun. I always wonder suspiciously what is really happening up in space.
Our teacher Mrs Lagitupu gave us 10 balloons to show us how the planet’s in space. Some of the kids in our class demonstrated how the earth and planets orbit the sun. We blew the balloons up and tried to make them the actual size, but in a smaller version. The sun was in the middle and the everyone else who had the other planet’s had to go around the sun as if they were really the planets. It looked realistic.
The planet’s were in position, Mrs Lagitupu was waiting for everyone to be quite. Then the planets introduced themselves, as Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. After all the that Mrs Lagitupu said “GO” and off the planets went rotating around the big, bright sun. We noticed that the Earth wasn’t rotating properly, it was supposed to go around in circles as it was revolving around the sun. When that was done we had to tell facts about each planet such as …......
Did you know that Pluto is considered a Dwarf planet, and so Mercury is the smallest planet in our Solar System. Did you know that Saturn’s rings are made out of little tiny pieces of ice. It takes Earth one whole year to go around the sun once but it takes Venus 224 days. Mostly everyone can see the stars but Uranus can't because storms of clouds. Did you know that Venus was named after the Roman Godess love and beauty. The sun is the biggest and only star in our Solar System, but the biggest star in the universe is VV Cephei.
At the end of the day, mostly everyone enjoyed themselves. It was fun and experiencing, to know all those things. My favourite thing about this was knowing what things happen in space. I really enjoyed it and I hope we do it again for another experience. I really thought that was great. My favourite planet is Uranus, because of the colour and it is really beautiful.
