the class watched this clip: http://www.literacyshed.com/the-thinking-shed.html

The children were asked to describe this view of earth.

"A big round ball with swirly white spaces - surrounded by darkness."

Esther - A mass of marble with white and blue spilt over it.

Cam - A big round sphere that has lots of different colours on it.

Petra - Earth is a ball of green and blue, it's my DESTINATION. Earth - where most living things come from...a world of life, lovely and lively. But from here - it's just surrounded by black. 

Fergus - A big ball exploded with colours.


Kuini - A face with no mouth, no ears, no eyes and chin.

Charlie - White coloured with big blobs of green, big dots and huge humongous blue spaces like a marble. 

Jet - A colourful round huge thing, I saw it in Space...it is cloudy. It is covered in darkness.....IT IS EARTH.
