Solar Eclipse

Yesterday we saw a solar eclipse. A solar eclipse is when the moon goes in front of the sun. We had to wear special glasses to look at the solar eclipse. Scientists invented them to look at the sun. By Tyler

Yesterday there was a solar eclipse. We got to look at the sun. It looked like a Cookie Monster came and ate a whole chunk of it. The glasses were especially made for looking at the sun. By Jack

Yesterday at nine forty am Piwakawaka Class went out to the field to see a solar eclipse. We were lucky to see it. Some people never get to see it in their whole life. The solar eclipse is where the moon goes over the sun an makes a shadow on the earth. Scientists invented glasses that you can only look at the sun for 3 minutes or less. Weka Class bought them off TradeMe by a fundraiser. By Lucy
