Beginning with story time, I will read "The Magic School Bus: Lost in the Solar System" by Joanna Cole. Then with a video clip from Free School, we will examine our solar system. We will discuss where the planets and objects of our solar system and learn vocabulary words such as planets, gravity, light, heat, etc. The students will a map of our solar system on their paper. Any necessary PDFs will be provided before class. Finally, I will provide an enrichment activity for after class to continue the study of our solar system. This class is a great introduction into our solar system, or a good review, for anyone who needs it.

Hello from Texas! Although I am currently residing in Texas, we move quite often and that has allowed me to have many different types of career experiences.
