Find out more about the moon by reading these sources. Jot down any facts that you find interesting:
Dr Maggie’s Grand Tour of the Solar System by Maggie Aderin-Pocock (Pages 4-5):

National Geographic Kids website – Facts About the Moon:

Moon by Stewart Ross (Page 3):
Imagine you have been asked by the BBC to join Professor Brian Cox on a CBBC TV special about Space. He has asked you to do a five minute presentation on the moon.
If you are unfamiliar with who Brian Cox is, here he is in action (scroll down to the video ‘How earth was created’): https://www.bbc.co.uk/ bitesize/articles/zk7fy9q
When creating your presentation, consider these points:
- Think about writing a script or key notes for your presentation – making sure you practice aloud so that it stays within the five minute limit.
- You may want to use a computer programme to create a presentation, such as PowerPoint, or design and create posters which you can refer to as you as you speak
- Think about how to keep your audience engaged – maybe you could include some rhetorical questions which make your audience think more aboellelstjohns.school/…/Maths-Answers-Page-7-1.pdfut your topic.
Once completed, have a go at performing it to someone in your house. If possible, you could also record it and send it to us!

Stilling time
Please see Mrs O’Donnell’s post for today’s stilling time activity.
PE
Keep going with Mr Garvey’s activities or Joe Wicks PE, or some similar exercise such as Fitness Marshall, other online exercises. The most important thing is that you get your blood pumping and get yourself out of breath!
Have a good morning’s learning!

Hi Mrs Poole,
Is your email address, r.poole@ellelstjohns.lancs.sch.uk ? I just wanted it so that I could email you some of the work that isn’t saved.
Thanks,
Mr Vernon
Hi,
You’re missing hyphens between Ellel and St Johns. My email address is r.poole@ellel-st-johns.lancs.sch.uk
The gmail account doesn’t have hyphens in (very confusing!)
Thanks,
Mrs Poole
