This afternoon we learnt about how day and night are made. We learnt that the Earth rotates on its axis once every 24 hours. When our part of the Earth is facing towards the Sun we have day and when we face away we have night.
We worked with a partner to demonstrate this - one of us was the Sun and one of us was the Earth. We used scientific vocabulary in our explanation. It was quite tricky stuff!
