Our Own Space Mobiles!!

Yesterday the Haifas started one last space project. We have been working very hard on learning the names and order of the planets in our solar system, and so yesterday, we started to create our own mobiles! Each student got their own bag of eight different sized styrofoam balls, and were told they could decorate them however they wanted. We first started with oil pastels, and then realized that they were missing something important...GLITTER!!


Here Zack and Sadie are getting messy with glitter and oil pastels!


Tomorrow we are going to create the rings of Saturn on one ball. We were inspired by Sadie's project that she shared with the class, in which she made Saturn at home! She shared with us how she made the planet, and we are going to try to replicate it!

Keep an eye out for a glittery solar system heading your way soon!!
