Celebrating: Whāia ngā Whetū

Everybody was in 'Flow' when we celebrated the conclusion of our Inquiry Whāia Ngā Whetū with amazing and creative presentations. Flow became Flight as we launched off and the conversations around the learning became more animated.
Artworks, animations, explanations, board games and dioramas were some of the many ways in which kids chose to share their learning.  The creativity and breadth of knowledge was astounding!
 We have been exploring the Universe: the multiverse, aliens and alien lifeforms, black holes, The big bang, star formation, Apollo missions, constellations and their connections to myth, the list goes on.

Kids became teachers and shared their deep knowledge about the 'mind blowing' concepts involved as soon as you begin to look outwards into the heavens.  We have been left with even deeper curiosity about the many questions connected with outer space and astronomy.

We evaluated each others presentations.

The Goldilocks Zone.  Earth is is one of 3 planets which are considered to be not too hot, not too cold to sustain life (as we know it)

The audience was fascinated!
