A Model Planet in Our Solar System A Model Planet in Our Solar System For our project, students will take their knowledge of our solar system and create a model of a planet assigned to them. The planets should be relatively proportioned to any moons the planet may have. The planet should be clearly labeled in some way. This is a project meant to not only see how students view the solar system, but to also showcase their creativity. Students are encouraged to use color and to get creative while learning. Each student will have to present their project to the class, so they should come prepared to discuss how their planet model was created and be able to tell facts about the planet. This project has a total of 150 points. Rubric Code: T984X2 By pprince Ready to use Public Rubric Subject: Science Type: Project Grade Levels: K-5
