HELP WITH SOLAR SYSTEM

Having trouble remembering the planets in order and the details??? Here is the video we watch in class to refresh our memories each day!

Solar System with CEREAL???

To help students learn the distance between the planets and introduce the Solar System, we created a solar system out of cereal. Here are the pictures of the students putting together their Solar System and their final products. Students were amazed to see that 1 Cheerio=30 million miles!!!


















Wilson couldn't wait to finish so he could enjoy eating his very own Solar System! 

STAR LAB

Recently,our class had the opportunity to go to the star lab. All of the students were amazed at what the planetarium had to offer. Here are a few pictures of the students and their experience visiting space.
