So…Ms. Frizzle doesn’t work at Nelson & we can’t turn a school bus into a rocket ship to take us to the moon, so…
we stepped out this week & used kinesthetic learning to help us envision the solar system & its immense size…
…& better understand how far each planet is from the sun by creating a small scale map of it—using our steps & cone planets!
At the end of our walk we were a step ahead in our knowledge of the solar system!
Can you name the planets starting from the dwarf farthest away from the sun!? Click on each picture to confirm your guess!
