This education kit contains resources for Years 5-10 students focussing on the planets of the Solar System. The study of the components of the Solar System has curriculum links to the Science knowledge and understanding and Science at work dimensions, and the Mathematics, Thinking Processes, Interpersonal Development and Personal Learning domains of the Victorian Essential Learning Standards.
The kit includes information for teachers planning an excursion to the Melbourne Planetarium at Scienceworks, together with student activities to do at home or school. The information and activities complement the Planetarium shows, but may also be used independently by teachers planning a classroom unit of work.
