On Wednesday, we did an activity to learn how far away the planets were from the sun! We used toilet paper to measure :) We explained that this was a "scaled down" version, and that the planets are actually much further away from the sun! We knew that Mercury was the hottest planet because it was the closest (2 sheets), and Neptune was the coldest planet, an astounding 75 sheets away from the sun! We were able to incorporate so much math and science into one activity!
