Our Solar System


This week in class we are learning about our solar system, the great expanse of space that encompasses the planet earth. This is part of our science TEKS
One of the things we will be looking at is learning about each planet and their unique characteristics. Here is a great interactive website that covers each planet
Where does energy come from? Life on earth depends on one very important object in our solar system; the Sun.  We will be discovering how the balance of our entire solar system depends on the sun. Watch this cool video to find out some amazing things about the brightest object in our solar system.
After learning about the planets create your very own solar system, but be careful not to let the planets collide.
