More Space resources

I have almost finished my Science unit!

Today I will be sharing some online resources songs for the planets and a small lapbook I have prepared and you can get on my TPT store.
I will be using it with my second graders but I have adapted it so you can use it almost in any grade.
So starting with the songs I have to say that it is very difficult finding a Spanish song that teaches planets without Plutón. So I just included some and we can always tell the students that it was considered a planet some years ago.
My favorite is the second one. I know it’s really old and the planets are not in order. But I use to sing it as a kid, so I teach it to my students too.

Here you have more good sites to work with your students when teaching about Space.
The first one is for upper students and they can learn about our Solar System.
Lots of facts and some animations.

The second site is great. You can find activities for PreK-K students 1st-6th graders and upper grades too.
In the activities for the younger ones there is a cute theatre activity that presents all the planets.
I will be using it next year.
In the 6-12 year old students you can find  videos, an online animation where your students can pick an astronaut, many facts and some online games.
In the older students section your students will learn facts and some History about Astronomy.
I am participating in Mrs. Castro’s 100 Fabulous Followers giveaway. She is a bilingual teacher in a multi-age classroom. WOW!
