Solar System Thematic Unit – Monday – Fall 2022 – 5 weeks – Grades 1 -2

In this unit, we will identify the planets in the solar system as well as observe and describe their characteristics and features. We will learn about the Solar System, the order of the 8 planets and special words such as orbit and asteroid. Students will be able to identify the planets in the Earth’s solar system as well as determine the position of the planets from the sun. Students demonstrate an understanding that there are objects other than the Sun and the planets in our solar system.

Sometimes the best way to learn things is to actually do them! Students will enjoy the hands-on approach of this course that combines science, math and technology into fun experiments that challenge the mind at every turn. Building on the STEM foundation, we will learn how to apply science to everyday life, and we will have fun doing it! Most importantly, students will learn that with science you never stop questioning!

NOTE: Registration deadline is October 15, 2022.

There must be a minimum of 5 students to run this class.
