The
Earth
By: Sarah W.
The Earth is 70% water. From space it
looks like a big, blue marble. The
circumference of the Earth is 24,000 miles.
The Earth is 93,000,000 miles from the sun. We orbit the
sun. It takes 365 and a ¼ days to orbit the sun. To be
precise 365.256366 days. Every 4 years we get a leap day
to make up for the forth day. Our distance from the sun
makes Earth perfect for life.
We are the third planet from the sun. Mercury is
first, then Venus, then Earth! There are eight
planets in the solar system. A fun way to
remember them is to do this: My Very Educated
Mother Just Served Us Nachos!
Our Earth has an invisible line going
through the north pole all the way through
the south pole. That invisible line is called
the axis. The axis is tilted. That is what
makes day and night.
It takes 23 hours, 56 minutes
and 4 seconds for the earth to
orbit 1 full time around. That is
one day.
On Earth there are over 1,000,000 species of
animals, insects and plants.
They are all living things. They all need air. They all
need water. They all need sunlight.
The Sun
By: Owen
The Sun is a star. It is the only star we can see in
the day. The Sun is a huge ball of burning gas.
The Sun is in the very middle of the Solar
System. Earth is the third planet away from
the Sun. Earth is 93 million miles away from
the Sun. There are 9 planets in the Solar
System.
The Sun faces one side of the earth it is day and
the other side is night. That is what causes
day and night.
Seasons occur because when the earth tilts to
one side the side that’s tilting toward the Sun
is having summer and the other side is having
winter.
The inside of the sun is called the core. The
outside of the sun is called the surface.
The earth is the is the perfect distance away
from the sun so we can live. Without the sun
there would not be any life on earth.
THE
MOON
By Gabriel
The moon is the closes to the earth.
The moon is smaller then the earth if the earth was pizza the moon
would be a pepperoni. The sun shines on the moon that is how the
moonlight up.
New moon means that you can not see the moon that means the sun
does not shine on the moon . When the right side of the moon is shining
the sun is shining on the moon. The big wholes that you see on the moon
is could a sea.
There is no oxygen on the moon. It cannot rain or
storm on the moon. The moon orbits the moon. It
takes 27 days to orbit the moon. When you
can seethe whole moon it is called full moon
The moon is 239,000 miles the
moons distance from us is 2)160
miles
