COSMODOME


Today we went to the cosmodome. It is a big blow-up igloo that showed us the stars and planets and galaxies. It was very exciting. Here are some of the things we learned or liked about it.


Aaron: I liked when Ron taught us about the stars and the sun.
Ayden: Mercury is the closest planet to the sun.
Bailey: I liked the stars that turned into pictures.
Caroline: I liked the sun. It doesn't move - we do!
Chloe: I liked looking and seeing the planets and stars.
Corey: In Jupiter you can actually go through the planet.
Dakota-Rose: I learned that Saturn's rings are made of little rocks.
Ella: I learned that Mercury is very hot. One planet is only made of dust and if you hop on it you will go right through.
Emily: I learned that if you go on Jupiter you will fall right through.
Finn: I liked going inside and looking at the planets close up.
Grace F: I didn't know that we would just fall through Jupiter.
Harriet: I liked how Ron showed us the planets and took us for a ride through space. 
Hayley: I liked the stars. The sun was scary because it is so hot.
Izzy: I liked the planet Saturn with the rings. It looks like you could walk on them.
James: I liked the dark inside because I could see straight away.
Katie: I liked it when we saw the stars and the pictures they made.
Mateo: I liked the feeling when it seemed like we were traveling through space.
Michael: I liked the scorpion that was made out of the stars.
Ruby C: I liked it when it was dark and the stars came out.
Ruby F: I liked it when it felt like we were moving through space.
Seth: I learned about how the Earth moved slowly around the sun. It takes one year.
Tara: I liked learning that if you jump into Jupiter you go right through.
Tiana: I liked how the sun was bright orange and yellow.

We were so lucky to have the Cosmodome at school. I learned heaps too. Have you been able to see some of the things you learned in the real night sky?
