Hello 2nd graders! Today, we will be taking on the role of astronomers and going to space! We will be exploring the planets by looking at pictures, listening to a song, reading a book to meet each planet, then finishing off by researching some interesting facts to put on a class Jamboard! When you are done looking through all our resources, double check how much you know by taking the Google forms quiz at the end. Safe travels, astronomers!
