My Project

Our first grade would like to have a classroom transformation day and venture into outer space to learn all that we can! We are a grade level that loves to learn and we absolutely soak in all the information that we are taught.

We thank you so much for helping us with our goal!

We look forward to our amazing day of learning all about our solar system. We will use floor puzzles to learn the planets and models of the solar system to learn where they are positioned in the solar system! We will be experts on outer space and we will have fun learning it all!
