The Sol and other Stars (Our Sun)

Every hear of “Sol”? Sure you have! It’s our Sun! It sits at the center of our 8 planet solar system, providing us with heat and light.

 

Is it a Star or something else?

So you know what a star is, right? Well, if you don’t, you should.

We’ve talked about that big one in the sky a few times: The Sun! But there are a lot of bright dots in the night sky and not all of them are stars. Today, let’s play a game of “Star or Not a Star” to learn a little more about everything that’s up there.

Remember the school rules

  1. Be Kind
  2. Do not mention anyone’s names including your own.

Comment Help

Remember, your comments are reflective comments just like your smiley face comments at school. You can share what you’ve learnt, what you enjoyed and ask any questions you may have. Also, don’t forget to write full sentences with the correct punctuation!

A bad example: ‘I’ve learnt loads, that was great’

A good example: ‘I’ve learnt that the Sun is in the centre of our solar system and that it is really big’

Never Use a Full Name

Use other names, but nothing silly as this name appears for everyone to see. Names that are full names or sill names will not be posted. Use abbreviations like   Mr G or Miss P or your initials will do.

  1. I have learnt that the Sun can also be refered to the Sol and the Sun/Sol is 15,000,000’C. Without the Sun the Earth would be freezing because our energy in Earth comes from the Sun and without it, Earth would be plain and boring. It takes eight minutes for the Sun’s heat and light to reach the Earth.
