Hi Colette,

This sounds fab! It might be cool to consider how we might communicate with aliens as a lot of scientific thought and action has been put into this question!

Hi Jackie,

This sounds wonderful. This resource might be of use to you. Also fun fact about twinkle twinkle, its actually an excellent tool for teaching you how to spot a planet in the sky! as they can often appear a similar size to stars but we can tell something is a planet if it is not twinkling!

Hi Michelle,

This sounds fab. It might be worth looking at the sky cultures function on Stellarium or for your own interest this.

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.

Hi Jean,

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 Juliette,

This sounds fab! I would recommend using model magic for making aliens! This resource might be cool for making space equipment.

Hi Barbara,

This is fantastic I enjoy how engaging it is. It might be cool to consider where other life might come from.

Hi Aoife,

This is wonderful! Sci show kids and bitesize are fab resources. This might be helpful for the colour aspect.

Hi Aisling,

This is fab! There is so much content here! It can be cool to look at the difference between meteors and asteroids too!
