Lucy Hawking

Do you want to take part in a cosmic treasure hunt and discover the secret key to the universe?

If you only do one thing

Would you like to do an activity inspired by Lucy's event but are short on time? 

Space travel SCN 2-06a, LIT 2-14a, LIT 2-15a

Ask pupils to imagine that you are all travelling to space tonight and that tomorrow's lesson will be held on Mars! Ask them to decide what they need to pack and why. They could spend time researching Mars to help them decide. You could of course select a different planet and try to pack for that instead!
