That is precisely what my classroom of children will pretend if we can manipulate Solar Walk on our large interactive screen!" — Greg Kroening, Burroughs Community School "I used this app recently when teaching Year 9 BTEC students about the composition of the Solar System. Students were engaged from the start as I had chosen to project the animation of the solar system. I was pleased and amazed by the engagement of the students throughout the lessons as this app made the lesson more accessible to all students." — Smartlearning Teacher of Science at Priority Community School Weston Super Mare.
