Dear Boys, Girls (and Parents),

During the following term, as some extra work for one of our science topics, you have been asked to study ‘The Earth, Sun, Moon and Space’ in order to create a school project. This will help to develop your research skills by using various resources and also hopefully improve your persuasive writing skills! You may work independently, or with a partner of your choice.

You do not need to do any more journal/comprehension tasks whilst working on your project. You may also regard any reading you do for the project as your reading for the week, but please make sure your blue book is still signed twice weekly.

Here are some useful websites FOR the Moon Landing:
