How Do You Organize a
Space Party?
You
Planet!
Allie Bieling & Caroline Sullivan
ISSUE
Shortage of coverage of science-related material due to science not
being included on standardized tests/elementary school classrooms
SOLUTION
Include science in curriculum
GOAL
Encourage students to understand and apply all tiers of Bloom’s
Taxonomy
SETTING
Second grade classroom at the Moylan School
Objectives
Students will…
understand the orientation of planets in the solar system.
-
The sun is a star that appears larger and brighter than other stars because it is closer. Stars range greatly in
their distance from Earth. (2-ESS1-1)
become more spatially aware when examining the relative position of planets in the solar system in relation to
the Sun.
-
Represent whole numbers as lengths from 0 on a number line diagram with equally spaced points
corresponding to the numbers 0, 1, 2, ..., and represent whole-number sums and differences within 100 on a
number line diagram. (2.MD.B.6)
Students will...
utilize cooperative learning strategies to develop interpersonal and intrapersonal skills.
-
Participate in shared research and writing projects (e.g., read a number of books on a single topic to produce a report;
record science observations). (2-ESS1-1)
develop research skills by finding relevant information in both text and online sources.
-
Obtain information using various texts, text features (e.g., headings, tables of contents, glossaries, electronic menus,
icons), and other media that will be useful in answering a scientific question. (2-ESS2-3)
gain presentation and communication skills by presenting their planet diorama in front of the class.
-
Modeling in K–2 builds on prior experiences and progresses to include using and developing models (i.e., diagram,
drawing, physical replica, diorama, dramatization, or storyboard) that represent concrete events or design solutions. (2ESS2-2)
MONDAY
TUESDAY
-Dedicated to
“Knowledge” (first
tier on Bloom’s
Taxonomy)
-Video
-Introduction to
solar system on
white board
(planet’s names,
appearance)
- Computer lab to
research planets on
the website provided
by their teacher.
-K.W.(L.) method
-Book: “The
Planets in Our
Solar System”
separately
-Coloring
worksheets to
complete
separately
-Group assignments
based on mixed
ability by the teacher
-Worksheet with
three questions per
planet which they
will complete as they
do research
- Writing exercise
with facts from each
planet. Copy + paste
accordingly under
the respective planet
on the bulletin board
in the classroom
WEDNESDAY
-Science project
introduce
-Handout
displaying
planet’s distance
from the sun,
minimum and
maximum
temperature will
be provided
-Each group of
students will be
given nine index
cards for fact
recording
-Distance from
the sun math
activity on the
whiteboard
THURSDAY
-Field trip to the
Connecticut
Science Center
-Students will visit
an exhibit
dedicated to our
solar system
-Students will visit
at least three
stations where
they will complete
a worksheet and
participate in
interactive games
-Upon return, they
will discuss as a
class what they
learned and how
they can use that
information when
creating their
projects
FRIDAY
-Completion
of
their capstone
projects
-Individual
favorite fact
presentation in
front of the class
-Jeopardy
activity
-Award winning
team
-Wrap up with
“L” component
of the “K.W.L”
method
Wednesday
Task 1:
● Students will get into their small groups
● The science project will be introduced
● Students will be reminded to keep all of their worksheets
Task 2:
● A handout displaying the planet’s distance from the sun, minimum and maximum temperature will be provided
● Each group will be given nine index cards asking for the plants a) Distance from the sun, b) Minimum temperature
and c) Maximum temperature.
● Once students have filled in the three facts they will be instructed to put them in their desks
Task 3:
● Teacher provide line graph on white board
● Students will place assigned planet on the board accordingly
Names: _____________________________________________________________________________
MERCURY
1. How far is Mercury from the Sun?
2. What is Mercury’s minimum temperature?
3. What is Mercury’s maximum temperature?
Friday
● Students will be asked to get back into their groups
● Each group will be given ten styrofoam balls, nine straws cut at different lengths, ten
toothpicks, and ten pieces of tape
● Students will work together to create a diorama of planets revolving around the main
styrofoam ball which will represent the Sun.
● Each student from the group will write down a fact about their planet
Friday
●
Jeopardy will act as the evaluation component of Bloom’s Taxonomy
●
Students will be individually called on to answer various questions worth different points regarding
the solar system
Mercury
Venus
Earth
Mars
Jupiter
Saturn
Uranus
Neptune
