Solar Eclipse Day

Today is a special day because there is a Solar Eclipse.

This means that the moon goes in front of the sun.

It makes it darker for us.

We have learned about Solar Eclipses and we have watched some You Tube clips to help us understand what is happening.

We are watching the sun and the moon today to see the solar eclipse happening....but we know that we CAN'T look straight at the sun.


We are making an imovie about the Solar Eclipse....we will post it here when we have finished it.

We are going to write about the solar eclipse too.

We went to Room 8 and taught the children about the solar eclipse and we taught Nina (Ava's Mum) too. 

We are great teachers!

We turned out written reports into a news bulletin and we recorded each other on the ipad.  We added this to our imovie.

We also made pin hole cameras so we could see the solar eclipse, it was fun to make these and very easy too.

There is a fantastic movie clip on this web site that shows what the solar eclipse looked like.
