Today we are going to talk all about the Planets! Let’s talk about the planets – their colors and their order. See the picture that Miss Cullen holds up? Make sure you take a good look because some of the planets are tiny. First, see the sun all the way on the far left? Now remember that the Sun is not a planet, but a star. Closest to the sun is Mercury, then Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. You can also see that the planets are different sizes. Now look at each planet individually. Mercury is a grayish color and very hot. Venus is a brownish color. Earth – we all know Earth, that’s where we live. Mars is a reddish, orange color. Jupiter is an orangish color with white bands. It is also the biggest planet in our solar system. Saturn is the second largest planet and is a light yellow. Uranus is a light blue color. Neptune is also light blue. Pluto is the ninth planet and a light brown or tan. Click here or the "Extra Content" button and watch my video as we do our Circle Time togther!

Miss Cullen announces it is “Art Time” and holds up the “Teacher Helper Time” sign.

Let’s make a sun with Miss Cullen. Trace the pattern of a circle (you can use this earth pattern if you'd like) onto a piece of orange paper and let your child cut it out. Circles are the perfect shape for developing motor skills so let your child do his/her best. Using regular paper cut out triangles for the sun beams and let your child color them. Use tape to attach the sun beams to the circle. Click here or click "prep video" above to watch my video on making a sun!
Note, you have the flexibility to do a different art activity rather than the suggested idea.
