The Sun, Earth and Moon

In Room 4 yesterday we did an experiment to show how the Earth and Moon spin around. We used a hoop to show the Sun. The basketball was Earth which orbited on its axis to get night and day as well as orbited around the Sun over a year. The Moon orbited around Earth every month.

Xavier as the Sun, Robbie as the Moon and Kate as Earth.

Then we drew a diagram in our books of what we had learned. Here are some AMAZING diagrams!
