Learning Objective 4.7 The student will investigate and understand the
organization of the solar system. Key
concepts include
a) the planets in the solar system;
b) the order of the planets in the solar system; and
c) the relative sizes of the planets
Activity This learning activity will get the students
understanding the planets in the solar system. The
class will begin by having the teacher review the
planets that are in our solar system. The teacher will
then show a video of the solar system and the planets
that are in it. Relating to the SOL standards, the
students should be able to understand the
organization of the solar system; therefore, the
students are going to create a 3D exhibit of the
planets in the solar system. The website that the
students will use is http://www.classtools.net/3D/. It
allows you to create a 3D exhibit online with photos,
videos, and a caption. In this exhibit the students will
include:
 The names of the 8 planets (in order)
Pedagogy

 A picture of each planet

 The relative size of each planet

Technology The technology that will be used in this lesson is a

website called: http://www.classtools.net/3D/ this

allows the students to create a 3D exhibit using
photos and videos online for free.
