Centered around the book The Planets by Gail Gibbons, this unit invites kids to journey through our solar system with interactive lessons and creative projects. From the blazing surface of the sun to the distant reaches of Neptune, your kids will explore each planet through a mix of science, art, and STEM-based discovery.

Your kids will explore planets, space science, and engineering through hands-on activities like:

  • Create planet fact cards using stamps and ink
  • Paint and assemble a small-world galaxy
  • Play a game to learn how many moons planets have
  • Build a space probe and edible space rover
  • Complete orbit-themed math challenges

Learning Tips

We’ve divided the learning experiences into eight sections, and we recommend doing the activities in the order suggested as some build upon the next. However, you don’t need to complete all the lesson activities at once if that’s too much for your schedule. Just pause and pick up where you left off next time. Doing these activities two days a week will take four weeks to complete the unit. The activities in this kit were designed for K to 4th graders. But we know kids are at all different levels and interests, so feel free to skip or add-to an activity if it isn’t right for your child(ren). That’s what Schoolhouse Discoveries are all about - having fun learning and finding ways that best fit your needs.
