Modeling the Solar System in 6th Grade

The sixth grade scientists are at it again, combining their math, science, and art skills to build scaled models of the solar system. Some students created models with art supplies or food, while others went outside and compared the distances of their models to the vast expanses of our solar system. The 6th graders also used Padlet.com to share and comment on each other's work. The creativity and thoroughness of the student's work is at an all-time high despite learning from a distance!"
