The Earth's orbit influences much of our lives, from the length of our year to the changing of the seasons. We are travelling at a speed of approximately 30 kilometres per second or 110 million metres per hour around the Sun yet we don't feel ourselves moving! The Earth takes 365 and a quarter days to orbit the Sun, giving us our 365 day year with an extra day once every four years as a 'leap year'. The Earth is also spinning on an axis, tilted at 23°. This means that different parts of the…

The best way to clear up misconceptions kids have is by letting them experience on their own. By making models of the Earth & Moon's orbit around the Sun, students gain a better picture of what's really going on in space. This activity is also great for interactive notebooks!

We have had an incredibly fun journey into space over the past month (actually a little longer because of the sick days in between!). Here are the highlights of our trip: ~ Boy did we read books! We read a whole collection of books on space, from easy picture books to space encyclopedias. We usually read the more basic books out loud together, so that the material was more accessible to Damian. Then I put the more complex reading in Rylan’s workboxes for him to read on his own.
