Solar System Hats

Today was the last day of our Solar System unit.  They really had a great time learning about this subject.  I always love when we make hats.  So I decided to have them make a solar system hat by coloring, cutting, and gluing the planets in order on a sentence strip.  Then I took a bendable straw and taped it in the center.  The kids taped a sun on the end of the straw so it dangled around all the planets. They turned out really cute!

Solar System Unit

We have been learning so much about the solar system and the kids are loving it!  I have to thank Jodi over at Fun in First Grade.  She has a great space unit that I bought from tpt.  It is full of information about the solar system as well as some really cute ideas and activities!  Next week we will be talking about stars and constellations so I made a worksheet where they use the letters of their names to make their own star constellation.  Here it is:

"MY NAME IS OUT OF THIS WORLD!"
