Faitele-Day/Night Explanation

 Day/Night Explanation

Did you know the stars stay where they are but they are not visible.  They still glow but you can’t see it, this is because the  glare of sunlight. You can see it at night because it is dark and light is needed so the stars are there.

You can't see the stars because during the daytime the blue color from the sunlight gets scattered around the earth. The blue light is brighter than the light we get from stars so it keeps it from seeing them.

people say our closest star but yet it is  1,392,684 km away. The sun is the only star in our solar system. The earth orbits the sun to give us  heat and light. Have you ever wondered what the sun is? Well the sun is like a fiery ball of gas that is continually boiling.


Did you know stars are made of Hydrogen and Helium. Hydrogen is the lightest gas/element. Once the hydrogen and helium mix they explode then it makes a star .

The main message in my explanation was to remember where stars go during the day and important and interesting information.

Solar System paragraphs

Faitele, Joshua, Efaraima, Evan & Robbie Solar System paragraphs

The sun orbits the earth and it’s the only star in our solar system. Stars are like a ball of gas held by its own gravity. A space probe is a piece of technology that explores and collects information from our planets. There are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on all beaches. The earths atmosphere is made up of several layers. Space exploration is an ongoing discovery and exploration of structures in space. Many solar systems together form a galaxy. Every planet rotates on its own axis having differents lengths of day and year. Constellations have been an important part of human society.
