The Balloon Experiment

For our Science lesson on how and why we have nights and days, we tried to recreate a model of the Earth and the Sun! We used torches to act as the sun shining down on Earth (the balloon). It was important to hold the torch still as we learned that the sun doesn't move or rotate... the Earth does!
