Earth

We have begun our new unit in science: Earth and Sky! 

We began by learning about Earth. We read nonfiction books and learned some new facts. Then we split into 4 teams. Each team had to agree on a fact to write and illustrate about Earth. 

Throughout our exploration of Earth, there were a lot of amazing questions from our scientists:

"Does lava make the mountains we climb?"

"When you get to the top of a mountain, why is it colder, if you're climbing closer to the sun?"

"When it is summer and the earth is leaning toward the sun, when it's night it faces away from the sun, so why isn't it winter?"

"How can we see the sun in winter if we are tilted back?"

Please ASK your child about these questions and what we learned from them.
