Half term project
Your project for this half term – Exploring Space
As you know, this half term we are studying space in Science. I would like you to study some of the areas of space that you have an interest in. Your learning outcome could be a PowerPoint, a Word processed or handwritten project, a model or sculpture. This should demonstrate the research you have put in over the weeks before the deadline of Monday 21st October when you will share your learning with the class.
You could study (but are not restricted to):
- The moon landings
- Could there be life on other planets?
- Black holes, meteors and other space features
- Constellations of stars
You could create (but are not restricted to):
- A model of a planet

Have a great weekend!
