There are truly many Online Resources that are accessible and suitable for the Infant classroom that I am very excited to share with my colleagues and make use of in the coming school year.
I really love the Astronomy picture of the Day as I think this opens up oral language discussion and awareness of the pupils of a lace within and beyond them. I think these pictures could be used in conjunction with music to do some creative writing work.
The characters of Marvin and Milo look super friendly to the Infant room. (My own 3 year old loved these when I was looking at them!!) I thought the spinning egg challenge was really cool and the Magic Balloon one. I also think that we could use just the characters themselves as a starting point for drama activities based on certain space topics.
I think ESA kids could be invaluable for planning and also for station teaching – the children could play games independently.
Linking in with the previous module I think Stellarium would be fabulous for lessons on stars.
