Online resources and tools
I really found this module of the course super interesting and beneficial for my teaching in the future, I honestly have never heard of these activities and resources- so I am excited to use them next year!
For this assignment I will talk about the online resources
Milo and Marvin I will a hundred percent use these characters next year in my classroom, they are child friendly and it also includes a home concept which will be very beneficial In my deis school to increase parental involvement!
I really loved the https://stellarium-web.org resource! It will definitely increase their scientific investigation skills. We can discover together the different constellations and stars, I would integrate this into maths too for shape and space.
The ESA kids website is incredible, I would like to try the ‘could we live on mars lesson’ with first class students. I was also intrigued by the ‘A Ride to Space’ art competition. We would do this as a whole class competition, we would firstly explore rockets, sketch them , talk about their features before designing and making them!
I look forward to using these online resources this school year.
