This path finder is designed for Stage 2 Students (years 5-7) working on the "Spinning Through Space" Primary Connections Science unit.

The purpose of this pathfinder is to guide students to resources that will enhance their understanding of space features such as the Earth, Moon and Sun and the relationships they have that causes day and night, seasons, eclipses and changes in our ocean tides.

This pathfinder provides a glossary of key terms that are used when exploring the theme. The online resources contain a number of interactive resources which allow students to gain a deeper understanding of the concepts by explaining and modelling concepts and allowing them to apply their knowledge through the use of quizzes. Suitable reference materials, printed materials held in the library and search engines have also been included to allow students to independently research.
