Learning about meteors

The other day with Mr Lenko we were learning about meteorites in the sandpit. We used a big ball, a small ball and an acorn. We were looking at the diferent craters they made when Mr Lenko threw the big ball it made a small looking crater and when Mr Lenko threw the small ball it made a deep crater. Then Mr Lenko threw the acorn it had a very small and deep crater. We learnt that meteors burn up as they come through the Earths atmosphere whereas the moon has meteors landing on it hence all the craters.

Shadows

First time we went outside the shadows were really long- longer than us. We drew around the oldest with chalk. The second time it was much smaller than the first one. My group said, "Why did it get smaller!" The last time we went out the shadows were really small, smaller than them all- it was smaller than me. Then we went inside and did some more work. We learnt that later in the day the shadows get smaller because the earth is moving away from the sun. By Jacob
