The Solar System and Beyond Activities
Each child
will write two paragraphs about a part of the solar system that will be
assigned to them. These paragraphs will be added to a poster with an
illustration of the planet. Each child will speak about the topic that they
investigated during their presentation at the science fair.
The class
will take a trip to the Planetarium. They will learn about our solar system and
exoplanets.
A guest
speaker will come to the class and speak to the students about the Solar System
and the exoplanets. Each child will ask
one question as though they were researching an article. The questions and the
answers will be compiled and displayed at the science fair.
Each child will make a 3

attached to a base with a wooden stick and displayed at the science fair.
The teacher will lecture about
each planet and the discovery of exoplanets. She will use age appropriate
