Hi Muireann,

this sounds wonderful. If you are integrating this with history and SPHE it is definitely worth looking at the star cultures feature on the Stellarium software! This might also be of interest!

Hi Olga,

This sounds great. I like your idea of looking under their desks! If you are looking at patterns have a look at the sky cultures feature on stellarium to see how different cultures saw both similar and completely different interpretations of the constellations.

This sounds wonderful. Discussing the possible physiology of aliens can be really engaging, it might be cool to gather inspiration from creatures living in more extreme environments on earth !

Hi Maria,

This is fab! This article might be cool for your own interest. If you are using ‘twinkle twinkle’ then it is fun to inform the children that you can spot planets in the sky as stars twinkle but planets wont.

Hi Louise,
This is fab! This set of resources about the Gaia telescope might be useful for your lesson as it is making a 3D map of the milky way galaxy and can give some idea of how stars behave and how many of them there are!
