Learning Objective

Success Criteria• To identify the planets in our Solar System.• To describe a planet in our Solar System.

• To explore space and the Solar System.

Starter: Rate Your KnowledgeThere are 5 statements below. For each question, say whether you think the statement is True or False.

1. The Earth is at the centre of the Solar System.

2. A light year is the distance that light travels in one year.

3. Stars leave the sky during the daytime.

4. The Moon emits light.

5. All stars are the same size.

False – the Sun is at the centre of the Solar System.

True

False – during the day when the Earth is facing the Sun, we cannot see the stars because of how bright the Sun is.

False – the moon is a non-luminous object and reflects the light from the Sun.

False – the stars range in size. The biggest known star has a radius of 987 000 000km. The smallest known star has a radius of 167 000km.

Day and NightThe Earth is tilted and spins on an invisible line called an axis.

Only half of planet Earth faces the Sun at any one time. The side facing the Sun is in daytime.

The side facing away from the Sun is in darkness and so it is night time.

It takes 24 hours for the Earth to rotate once on its axis.

If it is night time in New Zealand, what will it be in England?It will be daytime as England is on the opposite side of the world to New Zealand and will be facing the Sun.

The PlanetsIn our Solar System, there are 8 planets.

Can you remember the order of the planets?Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

A mnemonic is a way of remembering something. We can make a sentence out of the first letter of each word in a sequence to help us remember it.

For example, we can remember how to spell ‘because’ by remembering the mnemonic: Big Elephants Can Always Understand Small Elephants.

Create your own mnemonic to help you remember the order of the planets.

Our Solar SystemIn our Solar System, there are 8 planets.

What other objects might we find in space?You have one minute to write a list of as many objects you can think of that you may find in space.

• man made satellites – Satellites made by man and sent into space to carry out a function.

• natural satellite – The Moon is a natural satellite. It orbits Earth.

• asteroids• comets• dust• dwarf planets

Planet PostcardImagine that you have taken a much-needed holiday to another planet. Using the Planet Fact Cards, write a postcard back to your family or friends on Earth describing the planet and the activities that you took part in. Try to use as many facts as you can about your chosen planet.

What Is The British Empire?• An ‘empire’ is a group of countries ruled over by a single monarch or

ruling power. An empire doesn't need an ‘emperor’.

The 1850 Rich ListBritain = Number 1

Can you think of some reasons why?

The British Empire 1850

A History of The British EmpireThe British Empire has its origins in the 16th century, during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I (1533 -160 3).

After the victory of the English navy over the invincible Spanish Armada (1588), England increased its maritime power.

This led to overseas trade and the setting up of the first settlements in North America.

England imported luxury goods and re-exported them at higher prices to the European countries which didn’t have a direct overseas trade.

The Armada Portrait

Elizabeth's international power is symbolized by the hand resting on the globe. The I mperial Crown to her right also indicated England's growth as an international power during her reign.

Portrait of Elizabeth made to commemorate the defeat of the Spanish Armada (1588), depicted in the background.

Why was The Empire so Successful?

• Trade – to gain raw materials

• Strong military/Army – seen as a ‘great power’

• Spread of Christianity• The rise, and successive growth, of

the British Empire was mainly due to economic reasons.

• With the I ndustrial Revolution the need for new markets and new sources of raw materials accelerated the expansion of the Empire.

The British Empire – 1750 - 190 0

The Brits marched into somebody’s country and said, ‘We’re in charge.’

I magine: You have lived in your house all your life. You are happy with your home. Suddenly, some soldiers march in and say,‘this belongs to us now!’

Not only that - the soldiers then made the people work for them!

The British Empire and Slavery• British sailors became involved in the trade in the 16th century, and the

Treaty of Utrecht (1713) gave them the right to sell slaves in the Spanish Empire.

• I n the 18th century, it is estimated that 6 million Africans were taken to the Americas as slaves, at least a third of them in British ships.

• I n England, a group of Black Britons called the 'Sons of Africa' started a letter-writing campaign against the slave trade.

• I n 1787, the Committee for the Abolition of the Slave Trade was formed. William Wilberforce represented them in Parliament.

• I n 180 7, after a huge campaign – the first mass public protest campaign in history – The British Parliament abolished the slave trade.

The British Empire in the 20 th Century During the first half of the 20 th century almost all the colonies turned into dominions. This implied that they acquired political independence from England.

There have been many reasons suggested as to the decline:

• Britain no longer had military and naval supremacy.

• Following the Second World War, Britain was no longer able to financially support or afford an Empire.

• The United States had grown in population and wealth.

FlagsGurdwaras fly flags outside to show that it is a special place of worship. The flag contains the Sikh symbol.

The Four DoorsThere are four doors into the

gurdwara to show that people from the north, east, south and west are

welcome.

The most important focus in the main hall is the Guru Granth Sahib, which is treated with the respect that would be given to a human Guru. It is kept in a room of its own during the night and then carried to the main hall at the beginning of the day's worship.

The book is placed on a raised platform, under a special canopy, and covered with an expensive cloth when not being used.

Many Sikhs visit a gurdwara for worship. The gurdwara is also a place to learn more about Sikhism. The gurdwara is a community centre too, offering food, shelter and company for those who need it.

The morning service begins with singing a hymn, there is also a religious talk (called a sermon), prayers are said then there are readings from the Guru Granth Sahib (the holy book). Last of all, food is offered to everyone so people can eat and spend time together.

People also visit the gurdwara during special festivals to celebrate Gurus such as Guru Nanak because he started the Sikh faith.

Sikhs don’t have priests so any Sikh can lead the prayers and read from the Guru Granth Sahib.

Anyone is welcome in a gurdwara but there are certain rules to follow.

• Cover your head

• Take off your shoes and wash hands and feet before entering

• When you enter the main prayer hall, bow in front of the holy book, touching the floor with your forehead

• Offer a donation such as money, flowers or food

• Sit quietly on the floor with your legs crossed, facing the Guru Granth Sahib

• Never point your feet at the Guru Granth Sahib as this is disrespectful

• Men and women sit in different places

Why do you think it is important to many Sikhs to worship and eat together in the gurdwara?
