This week is space week in Scoil Iósaif Naofa. In 5th class for space week, we learnt about outer space. We did a scavenger hunt on questions about the solar system. We made projects on the solar system. Also, we learnt about Curiosity, the Mars Rover. An astronaut on the International Space Station read us a book about called “Curiosity”. For Art, we used oil pastels and chalk to make pictures of the solar system. Yesterday we did a workshop on space weather. Today, we did a table quiz on space, the questions were like; “What is the closest planet to the Sun?” or “Who was the first person on the Moon?”
This morning the fifth class boys had a zoom call with the children’s author David Walliams! The boys enjoyed listening to David talk about the characters in his books and he gave the boys tips on how to start writing a book. David read an extract from his book "The World's Worst Children".
