Let’s Learn About the Solar System – Printable Planet Mini-Book
Are you looking for a hands-on activity to help your students call the order of the 8 planets? Through this activity, students will create a mini-notebook to help them remember the order of the planets within our solar system.
Instructions:

Cut the mini-book page in half along the solid cutting line.
Fold along the fold lines to match the illustrations.
Glue the matching letter pages together, joining the two halves with page ‘B’.
