Lesson 1: Look to the Skies
Learning intention: to explore everything I know about and my understanding of day and
night.
Success criteria: by the end of the lesson, I have completed a Venn diagram about day and
night. I have also learnt about the difference between day and night and what they have in
common.
Complete the following activities:
1. Go outside in your backyard, the patio or the balcony and lie down on the grass or a
mat and look into the sky. Do not look directly at the sun.
On a piece of paper, write down the things you can see.
Now imagine it is midnight. Write down all the things you would see in the sky in the
middle of the night.
2. Read through the vocabulary cards contained in the Night and Day Word Wall
document. Decide where to place each word on the Venn Diagram (on paper or on the
Google doc)
There will be words you do not yet understand or do not know the meaning of, put
them aside for the time being as you will learn about them later.
3. In your workbook or the Google document provided, answer the following questions:
• What do you think day and night have in common?
• What is the difference between daytime and nigh time?
• Do you prefer day time or night time? Why?
4. In your workbook, divide a page in half and create a drawing of a daytime and night
time sky.

This Small Blue Dot by Zeno Sworder
A young, excited big sister explains to her newborn sibling all the possibilities in front of them. She tells them about
the stars and the universe and about how Mother Nature gives life to everything around us. She tells them what she
hopes to be when she grows up, but that no one should ever rush to grow up because it's hard. But the most
important thing, she says, is that they should have an imagination and contribute to the greater story of the world.
Activity 1. Can you identify what is special/unique about the narrator.
What is she interested in? ___________________________________________________________________
What is she good at? _______________________________________________________________________
What does she like to eat? ___________________________________________________________________
What does she not like to eat?________________________________________________________________
Using context clues and the illustrations, who is in her family?______________________________________
What is some of the REALLY IMPORTANT STUFF that she wants to share?___________________________________
Activity 2 What you are on the outside and who you are on the inside combine to make up the real you. Answer
the questions below to get a full picture of you. Think of it as a snapshot of you today.
Some things I like about myself are: ____________________________________________________________
My best qualities are: ________________________________________________________________________
I am good at: ______________________________________________________________________________
I would like to get better at: __________________________________________________________________
A talent I want to develop is: _________________________________________________________________
My secret dream is to: _______________________________________________________________________
Given who I am today, when I grow up, I want to be: ______________________________________________
Activity 3 Great picture books have a knack of speaking to our hearts and helping us feel connected.
Zeno Sworder is both the author and illustrator of this book. In his dedication he writes, “made with many crayons
and a few hardworking pencils”… the little girl and the baby are drawn in lead pencil, they are the things that are
real, all the possibilities and feelings are in colourful crayon.
Make your own artwork, draw yourself in lead pencil in the centre and create the most colourful amazing
surroundings of what matters to you the most, what you like, who you love, what you dream to be! Feel free to be
your whole amazing self!
If you want to, take a photo of it and share it with me at [email protected]

Kick golf
Vs a parent, sibling or a carer in a game of kick
golf in your backyard or at the park. You will
each use a ball such as a soccer ball, rugby ball,
volleyball or even a tennis ball.
The rules are simple, drop punt (like you would
see in the AFL) for each kick.
Get creative and take turns creating your own
fun and challenging ‘holes’ around the yard or
at the park.
An example at the park could be: Starting from
the corner of the field, kick it between the goals
and then finish by hitting a certain pole or sign.
Who can get to the designated location using
the least number of kicks?
