Hi everyone,
My name is Dayna and I will be teaching Junior Infants this year for the fourth time after a break last year when I went to second. I really enjoyed teaching an older class this year and we got to do a lot of very fun and interesting SESE lessons/projects!
My favourite space fact that a student shared with me this year is that you can fit one million earths inside the sun! I was as shocked as the rest of the class when I heard it. It really helped the children understand just how large the sun is and so they began to ask questions such as how much space is there in space? I am looking forward to this course and I hope I learn a lot that I can bring to my junior infant class in September and also go back to my 2nd class from this year with some answers to the their questions!
