Remember watching this?

Ms Sharpe

Night & Day

Ms Sharpe Hi 3S. Please add your thinking to our wall.

stjgsyear3s — 2014-09-01 12:07:01 UTC

1. Something I know.
2. Your 'Ah Ah' moment.

3. A question you would like to ask.

I've also added the you tube clip we watched and discussed in class.

Ms Sharpe

stjgsyear3s — 2014-09-02 04:32:14 UTC

A message from me to you. Have a listen!

Millie

ame9522 — 2014-09-02 06:55:18 UTC

that the sun is bigger than the earth and it takes 109 earths across the sun

Millie

ame9522 — 2014-09-02 07:09:19 UTC

why can't we feel the earth spining

Hey Millie - take a look at what Charlie found out by reading her post to Jet.

Blake

2014-09-02 08:26:09 UTC

I learnt that it takes 4 moons to cover the diameter of the earth

Jasmine

superllamaofawesomeness — 2014-09-02 08:54:24 UTC

I have an answer to Millie's question in why can't we feel the earth spinning. Because it moves really slowly.

Jasmine

superllamaofawesomeness — 2014-09-02 09:01:57 UTC

I found out it takes 109 earths across the sun.

annah

2014-09-02 09:10:28 UTC

I lernt that the sun stays still and the planets move around it

Hannah

2014-09-02 09:40:15 UTC

the moon is only our moon

Jet

2014-09-02 21:12:03 UTC

I learnt that the earth goes around the sun at a speed of 108'000 k/ph

My ah ah moment was when I saw how small the earth was compared to the sun

Why can't we feel the earth moving ?

Hannah

2014-09-02 22:18:08 UTC

how fast dose the moon travle?

Blake

2014-09-03 05:56:08 UTC

I have the same answer to Millie's question as Jasmine.

Jet

2014-09-03 05:58:13 UTC

A picture of the sun earth moon orbit

Charlie

2014-09-03 05:59:57 UTC

I really like this simple clip Charlie. Could you add a sentence to describe what this is about so the other students can take a look too?

Jasmine

superllamaofawesomeness — 2014-09-03 06:44:47 UTC

The earth spins on an axis which is shown on Blake's picture.

My wow moment was when I found out it depends on the earth for the 4 seasons, Winter, Autumn, Summer and Spring.

Blake

2014-09-03 06:46:56 UTC

Watch this movie called "The Earth Does Not Revolve Around The Sun".

Blake

2014-09-03 06:51:22 UTC

My ah ah moment was the same as Jets.

Blake

2014-09-03 07:00:06 UTC

Also remember to take this quiz!

Jasmine

superllamaofawesomeness — 2014-09-03 07:06:53 UTC

I saw the picture of the milkyway, Blake and it looked like the sun because I couldn't see where the earth was. :(

I was thinking the same thing Jasmine- Ms Sharpe

Charlie

out_iris — 2014-09-03 08:45:17 UTC

Here's an video that'l answer jet's question it's because it spins at the same spead

Amazing Charlie - this clearly answers Jet's question. Good finding! Ms Sharpe

Blake

stjgsyear3s — 2014-09-03 23:18:05 UTC

Look at the tiny sun compared to the giant Milkyway!

Sienna

2014-09-04 02:04:04 UTC

I learnt that it takes 1'300'000 moons to fill up the Earth

WOW! Now that is amazing.- Ms Sharpe

Calvin

2014-09-04 02:08:01 UTC

I learn that if there is a see through item that is blue,green,ect, an item's shadow can be a different colour. My ah ha moment was when I found out that I heard that shadows could be a different.( especially green shadows!)

Blake

2014-09-04 02:08:22 UTC

The sizes of the sun, moon and earth is sun is the biggest then the earth then the moon.

sean

2014-09-04 02:09:59 UTC

I no that the milky way is made of lots of stars

hannah

2014-09-04 02:10:04 UTC

my ah ha moment was when I saw how small the moon was because I always thought the moon was the same size as the earth .

Jasmine

superllamaofawesomeness — 2014-09-04 02:10:26 UTC

Here is a picture

Jet

2014-09-04 02:10:50 UTC

thans charlie for the video the awswerd my question

tom

2014-09-04 02:13:21 UTC

my question is how many galaxies there are.

Great question Tom...how could you find out? - Ms Sharpe

Hannah

2014-09-04 02:14:02 UTC

I learnt that shadows need an object to cause it.

Harry

2014-09-04 02:15:09 UTC

wen the sun reflex on you it maxi a shadow

Blake

2014-09-04 02:15:39 UTC

I learnt that the length of your shadow changes depending on the time of a day.

Hannah

2014-09-04 02:16:19 UTC

there is 24 hours in a day

Calvin

2014-09-04 02:18:46 UTC

The Earth takes 24 hours to spin around for day and night

I'm glad to see you have corrected your thinking here Calvin. It is important to share accurate facts. Well done for doing some second thinking. Ms Sharpe :-)

Maxine

2014-09-04 02:19:09 UTC

I learnt that the moon went around the sun becase it goes around the earth.

My ah ah moment was when i found out that the moon was rely small!

Issy

2014-09-04 02:20:22 UTC

the sun reflects on objects and makes a shadow.

SEAN

2014-09-04 02:20:40 UTC

Um how long does it take for the Earth to spin around the sun

Calvin\Blake

2014-09-04 02:22:50 UTC

Sean I have an anwer to your question, it takes 365.25 days for it to spin around the sun

tom

2014-09-04 02:23:14 UTC

my ahah moment was how far away the earth is from the sun.

sean

2014-09-04 02:26:27 UTC

J

2014-09-04 02:28:37 UTC

Earth Moon Sun system

hannah

2014-09-04 02:28:43 UTC

this is how the earth goes around the sun and the moon goes around the earth

Maxine

stjgsyear3s — 2014-09-04 02:31:28 UTC

My aha moment was when i found

2014-09-04 02:32:24 UTC

Inara

to answer your question sean it takes 24 hours for the earth to spin around once.

sean

2014-09-04 02:32:35 UTC

Nice drawing hannah

2014-09-04 02:33:42 UTC

charlie

Charlie - you might need to upload this as an image. I'm sure there is someone out there who can show you how do do this.

stjgsyear3s — 2014-09-04 05:39:16 UTC

Jet

2014-09-04 06:58:24 UTC

I have an answer to sean's question it takes 365.25 days to circle the sun

Blake

2014-09-04 06:59:22 UTC

Look at this worksheet and possibly print it out! Sorry it's a bit blurry

Blake

2014-09-04 07:07:49 UTC

This is for Ms Sharpe- I nowknow how to make writing bold, italic and underline writing and other stuff! I'll show you tomorrow at school.

Thanks Blake - Ms Sharpe :-)

2014-09-04 07:13:47 UTC

Je

Ms Sharpe

stjgsyear3s — 2014-09-04 10:50:58 UTC

thanks Blake - I look forward to you teaching me.

I am very excited to see people sharing ideas, asking questions and answering each others questions by guiding them to some great video clips, images and diagrams.

Great learning guys!

* Special tip - remember to explain your thinking by adding information to a diagram you have drawn or selected.

Sienna

2014-09-04 10:58:20 UTC

My AhAh moment was how big the sun is compared to the Earth and moon

Love this image Sienna and it's great to see you contributing your thinking. :-)

Sienna

2014-09-04 11:08:14 UTC

I learnt that the sun doesn't move but the Earth moves around it while the moon moves the Earth

Charlie

out_iris — 2014-09-04 21:47:59 UTC

Here is a video of the wobble affect and how we get seasons.

harry

2014-09-04 23:47:58 UTC

wot is the degrees in sid the sun

2014-09-04 23:49:59 UTC

superllamaofawesomeness — 2014-09-04 23:52:02 UTC

I learnt that the sun does not move the earth moves around the sun

Ella

2014-09-04 23:53:53 UTC

I learnt that shadows get bigger and

hannah

2014-09-04 23:57:19 UTC

hear is how you get a shadow but it also depends on where the the sun is in the sky

Good use of Notebook Hugh - Ms Sharpe

Calvin

2014-09-04 23:59:32 UTC

this diagram is my learning about the Earth on an axis (the wobble effect) and spinning around

Interesting - can tell me more about the wobble effect Calvin? I would like to know what it is - Ms Sharpe

Blake

2014-09-04 23:59:55 UTC

Here's a You Tube clip about sun, moon and earth.

sean

2014-09-05 00:00:20 UTC
