Space
As we explore  our solar system, let's gather as many facts as we can for each of our planets in the solar system. You will have three tasks to complete.


 Task #1  Name the inner and outer planets and 3 facts for each of the planets.

Task#2    Find the difference between rotation and revolution of a planet. Rotate and rev.html

Task #3 On the worksheet, place the planets in the correct circle or junction of circles using the information you have learned.


Here are some of the sites that you will find all of the answers to your tasks.  Please link on one site at a time.  Get the worksheets you need from your teacher to complete your tasks.  Be neat in your writing. Good luck!
