I would choose a lesson ESA and EA kids.
I will use the activity below?

Blast Off with ESA Kids!
Discovering Space with the European Space Agency
Our Mission Today
What we will learn:
What the European Space Agency (ESA) does.Meet Paxi, the little green alien explorer!How we can explore space from our classroom.
Space Words:
Astronaut: A person who travels into space.
Satellite: A machine that circles the Earth.
Rocket
A vehicle used to launch things into space.
Who is Paxi?
Have you ever wondered if there are friends on other planets? ESA has a special mascot named Paxi!
He is a friendly alien who travels around our solar system to teach us about stars, planets, and the moon.
Fun Facts:
Paxi has three arms! He uses them to help him explore space better.
We will make significant strengths in current science teaching and learn and celebrate every pupil’s progress.

Activity: The Moon
Describe how the moon as a theme promotes young children’s understanding of a wide range of astronomy and space concepts.
I would choose The Moon because all the children are curious about astronomy and space concepts.I would start the lesson by reading the story book: A Giant Night Light and watching the story on YouTube as well, a circle lesson quiz, questions, answers, true or false. Keep the pupils’ interest to learn about the fascinating moon and its phases
Does the moon shine?
Have you ever wondered if the moon is a giant lamp?
Shapes concepts: Why does the moon look different every night?
Shown the pupil’s different amount of the side lit by the sun. Shown the moon  phases.
Discussion, prompet, quizz, link this lesson with all the subjects .
Let the Pupil’s discuss with their partners and them engage, interact yhe kesson with quizz, slides,audio.

Hi Sean,

It is a fantastic idea, how to teach all the moon phases. The pupils are always curious to learn about science.

Hi Emer,

Thanks for sharing in the space week; use the story. It sounds great, and the pupils really enjoyed it.

Space Week!
Planning our cosmic adventure in 1st Class.
Our Mission Goals:
Today we are getting ready for Space Week! We will learn how to plan our activities, discover what a spacecraft is, and think like real astronauts.
Cosmic Word of the Day:
Spacecraft
A vehicle or machine designed to fly in outer space. Examples include rockets and satellites.
Look Up to the Stars!
What can you see?
If you look at the sky tonight, what might you see? We can find the moon, stars, and even other planets during our special week!
Resources: Spaceweek.ie
and Youtube channel: Wonderlab
Fun fact
Space Week happens every October in Ireland to celebrate science and technology!
Planning Our Week:
o have a great Space Week, we need a plan. We can:
Build cardboard rockets, draw alien worlds, watch clips of real launches
Your Mission Choice classroom: Which activity should we do first for Space Week?
Option A: Build
Use boxes to make a class spacecraft.
Option B: Explore
Look at photos of stars and planets.
Key point in our classroom:
Working together makes our space mission a success!

Hi Miriam,

I will implement this amazing lesson as well in my classroom. Children are curious and have a great interest in learning about planets and stars. I agree with you that the main activity is brilliant to engage the pupils in the classroom.

I would use Esero in my class.I love the space-related videos and images from ESA.

We can link that lesson with maths, numeracy skills, and wellbeing. I will use the resources and all the ideas to inspire the pupils, to engage in a collaborative discovery, and build confidence to learn science: space, Moon, Star.

All the content in ESERO we can link with all the subjects; we can teach inside and outside the classroom to make a great environment in the school, also group work, investigation, discussion, sharing ideas.
For example, a lesson: Our Space Mission :
Today we are going to learn all about the ESERO website!
Our Goals
Discover what ESERO does. See amazing photos of space.
Find out where astronauts work.
Space words to know: Before we explore, let’s learn these special words!
Astronaut – A person who travels to space.Satellite – A machine that circles Earth.

<span style=”font-size: small;”>Hi all, my name is Camila. This year I am teaching 1st class. I have interest to learn more about Space,Moon been interested in stars as it is the great unknown. I would be able to teach science, shapes, Star. Looking forward to this great summer course and all content.</span>

<span style=”font-size: small;”>Fun Facts about Star</span>

<span style=”font-size: small;”>Did you know we have a star that stays with us during the day?</span>

<span style=”font-size: small;”>The Sun is a star! It is our closest star. It is very big and very hot.</span>

Hi Sabrina,

It’s a wonderful ideas to teach Star lesson inside and outside the classroom.

The mini planetarium is a great lesson ideia.

[camila arvani]

Activity Star

Introduction:

Identify that stars are bright lights in the sky that are very far away.

Learn that the Sun is our closest star, and it is very big and hot.

Discuss how we can see stars better when there are no clouds in the sky.

Star Shapes and Colours

Recap our lesson on the Sun and take a quiz on when we can see stars.

Discover that stars are not all the same size or the same colour.

Explore how stars can make patterns in the sky that look like dot-to-dot drawings.

 

Ask:

What is a Star?

Have you ever seen a tiny light in the sky?

Make a Star Lantern

Draw your own constellation? Adaptable activities for young children.

Early Maths and Spatial language.

The Pupils shall be enabled to identify and discuss stars.

Incorporate playful mathematical activities related to the progression

criteria from the Draft Mathematics Specification.
