Using what they've learned about space, students will create an original song about the order of the planets from the sun. This song or rap should contain accurate details from our studies. Songs will be recorded using the class camera and set to background music. Songs/raps should be 1-2 minutes in length and follow this rubric. Finished songs will be played at the next Title I parent night. See the examples below. This activity satisfies the following GSE ELACC4SL5 and S4E2.
Georgia Performance Standards:
S4E2 Students will model the position and motion of the earth in the solar system and will explain the role of relative position and motion in determining sequence of the phases of the moon.
d. Demonstrate the relative size and order from the sun of the planets in the solar system.
ELACC4SL5 Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas: Add audio recordings and visual displays to presentations when appropriate to enhance the development of main ideas or themes.
