what a nice start to the mind-map. I like the post-it style.

Maria, I like the idea of showing images, and this is a chance to show different cultures and different parts of the world. There are a range of images of extremes of weather in different parts of the world in this resource from ESA: https://esamultimedia.esa.int/docs/edu/PR37_Moon_shelter.pdf, which is about making shelters -and has a suggested age of 8 to 12.

Mags, are there particular instructions that you use or do you ask the children to design and make based on what they are trying to measure? The Greenwave project (no longer running, but the resources are still on the sfi page at https://www.sfi.ie/__uuid/47f80047-293e-4b86-9392-e4c66ab141ab/) has some ideas to get children going.

Jane – I think that is cool too, and in module 2 we will spend some time finding out even more about the Moon!
