What an exciting day Room 2 had at the Otago Museum on Tuesday. The children were bursting to know more about space and were very excited to visit star lab. After crawling through a dark tunnel we emerged into the dome where the night sky spread out above us. Kim, our guide, told us all about the stars and planets in our solar system and even told us some stories about the patterns that the stars make in the sky.
All the children participated in a treasure hunt around the museum, getting to explore all the different galleries. We finished the day by learning about the people of the Pacific and we look forward to learning more about this topic next term. Here are some photographs showing some of the activities we were involved in at the Museum.
