Hi Karen,
This sounds lovely. It might be cool to get children wondering where Aliens might come from https://www.esa.int/Education/Teach_with_Rosetta/Paxi_animations
Hi Kate this is wonderful. This might be a useful resource to consider.
Hi Tadhg,
This sounds fab. It might be cool to look at funky animals for some inspiration https://www.discoverwildlife.com/animal-facts/marine-animals/weirdest-sea-creatures
Hi Sandra,
This is lovely, I enjoy the star gallery idea in particular. There’s some fantastic stories about how we once used the stars all over the world https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pleiades_in_folklore_and_literature while not a constellation but a star cluster you might find the above interesting!
Hi Rachel! This sounds fab! Just so you know, at BCO for the next while at least, classes have to visit the castle to see the dome. I adore when classes have already covered the basics because we can get onto specific questions they have and more deep space objects! Looking forward to hearing from you if ye are able to make the journey. Open Space or winstars 3 are also fantastic software resources!
Hi Susan, this sounds wonderful, I would absolutely have a look at the sky cultures option on Stellarium for this activity!
Hi Christine,
This sounds fab! This website has great resources and this could be a follow up to that alien landing piece which sounds like great fun !
Hi Shauna this is fantastic for your own interest this links maths to starry night!
Hi Susan,
This is fab! I especially like how you get the children to think about where these animals are positioned in their ecosystems. It can be fun to consider extreme animals we have here on earth https://www.animalsaroundtheglobe.com/14-creatures-that-live-in-volcanoes-6-330510/
Hi Camilla,
Sounds like a solid plan! this might be a useful resource!
Hi Ruth,
This is absolutely my favourite so far! Might be cool to show them clips of what living on a space station is like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIjNfZbUYu8
Hi Jacob,
This sounds wonderful I would consider having a look at the sky cultures feature on stellarium I think this could enrich your lesson.
This is fab Emer! Considering what sort of creatures we have in extreme environments here on earth might be a good place to get some inspiration for aliens! https://cheswardineschool.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Animals-that-live-near-volcanoes.pdf
