Today in Science, we created a scale model of the Solar System. We began by recapping our knowledge of the planets from the previous week including their distances and sizes, before choosing which fruit represented the planet and comparing it with our peers.
Following on from this, we then worked in groups to work out a scale model – applying our mathematical knowledge.
Once we had accumulated all of the information, we began to create a scale model of the solar system demonstrating the distances.
