These resources contain:
- Factfiles for the 8 planets
- A blank ‘research’ page for pupils to carry out research
- An introductory PowerPoint
By the end of this lesson, pupils should have a secure knowledge of the order of the planets in the solar system, and have had the opportunity to find out a little more about each of the planets.
As part of the ‘research’ section of the lesson, there is an interesting collaborative task, restricting pupils to only half of the planet factfiles, meaning they will need to ‘trade’ information with peers on the other planets, perhaps encouraging them to carry out the most comprehensive research.
