Science class are completing a unit focusing on Earth, Space & Space Exploration
This term, the MYP2 Science class are completing a unit focusing on Earth, Space & Space Exploration. This unit aims to prepare the students for their upcoming educational USA Space Conquest & Environment trip to NASA, Orlando, Florida.
The key concept of the unit is Relationships, and one of the related concepts is Models. As part of the holiday homework, the students were asked to create a model of the Solar System, to explore the relationship between the planets and the sun, and to research some interesting facts about the different celestial bodies in our solar system.
The students had creative freedom on how they would create their models and WOW what amazing colourful creations were produced!! The students did a fantastic job! Some models were so large they couldn't be returned to school, so the students created outstanding video presentations instead. Here are some examples of their work.
