Solar System Project

Dear Parents,

We have worked as a class to come up with ideas for this project (making a model of the solar system). This project will be completed as homework. We decided that there should be choices for completing this assignment, but cost to construct project should be a factor. Please try to use items already at your house and be creative.

Here are some ideas that we came up with:

Some additional optional ideas for this assignment are:

• Add a made-up planet to the solar system

• Work alone or with one other person. If working with another person, one solar system model should be turned in for the pair.

*The project will be worth one test grade.

This project is due on or before: January 13, 2016

Students,

*Please return this section on Monday, December 14th to let me know that your parents are aware of the project.

Thanks,

Mr. Jarsma
