Spacebook Profiles
In November, we started studying about space! We went
on different websites to learn more information about
planets and the moon. Then some coaches came and we
learned about the phases of the moon. A couple weeks later
we looked at some slide shows of the planets. In January, we
started thinking about which planets we would like to study.
We figured out what planet we were going to study for
sure. Then we went on student share and started. First we
went on expert space and looked up our planet. We had to
make Spacebook profiles! We had to find some cool facts
like Mercury can orbit around the sun in 88 real earth days.
Then we had to figure out what planets were in front and
behind. They are considered their friends. When we had to
trace circles up in art we used plates and bowl tops. It was
fun. We then started to paint our circles. Once we finished
painting we glued our Spacebook profiles onto our papers with
the planets.
