Earth’s Place in Space - Primary Connections
This unit of work covers Earth's place in the Solar System.
In the resource, students learn about how historical astronomers made their discoveries, including finding out that the Earth is a sphere and its relationship to the Moon and Sun.
Students also explore how the patterns in the sky relate to days, months and years and develop an understanding of how observation and models can be used to shape ideas and understandings through hands-on activities and student-planned investigations.
