Cosmodome Visit
321....Blast off! Today AS Class visited the Cosmodome. We learnt so many interesting things about the stars, sun and planets! What an incredible journey to the International Space Centre too! It must be really fun to be an astronaut. Did you know that our galaxy that we live in (The Milky Way) has over 200 billion stars!
Here's what we thought about the Cosmodome, and some things we learnt...
Wow! At school we went to the Cosmodome. We saw Matariki stars. We saw Saturn and Galaxies. I learnt that you can not land on Venus. Ollie
Guess what we did? Well, we went to the Cosmodome to learn about planets. Some of the planets were Venus, Mars and Saturn. Venus has volcanoes on it. Mars is called the red planet because it is red. Saturn's rings are made out of rocks, dust and ice. Zoe
We looked at the stars. We looked up high. Jake
Guess what we did? We learnt all about Matariki. Do you know all about Matariki? I do. Matariki are the hottest stars. Venus has Volcanoes and the volcanoes erupt. Matariki is hotter than the sun. I love the sun because it is warm and hot. Harry
Wow! I learnt that Venus has bad rain. It would melt your skin and your clothes. It is called acid rain. Jessica
Wow! Space is amazing! We had a look at Venus. We saw constellations. He showed us a scorpion. It was a group of stars. Kayleigh
Wow the stars are sparkling above my head. I learnt about Matariki. Matariki is hotter than the sun because they are blue. Madison
54321 I blast off into space. I blast off to the moon. I saw Mars. Alex
54321 blast off! Zoom! Wow is that really the space station? On Wednesday our class went to the Cosmodome. We went into the International Spacce Station. It is where all the astronauts live when they are in space. They also do lots of experiments. Harrison
Check out these photos from inside the Cosmodome.
