Description
I show them a picture of the Earth from the space and I ask them some questions
In groups they complete the chart with these questions: What do I Know?/What do I want to Know? What have I learned?( The last question they will answer at the end of the project..
Each group put the names in the correct place.
Each group make a model of the Solar System with plasticine.They have to put in order from the closest to the furthest from the Sun.
Each group tell a sentence to the rest of the class using the substitution table.

Task 1
Warm up activity. We show the pupils a picture of the Earth from the space. The teacher asks them questions like :
- Which planet can you see in the photo ? - What shape has it got ? - What colour can you see ? - How do we take this type of photo ? - Why is it called the blue planet ? - Do you know how Google Earth take photos ?

Task 2
KWL Chart. Now we are going to complete a KWL chart. In the fist column write anything you know about the Solar System . In the second column what your want to know and the third one, we will finish at the end of the unit.
What do I know? What do I want to know? What have I learned ?
Task 3
Presentation with flashcards of the planets, celestial bodies and space things.They have to classify into three groups: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Meteorit, Uranus, Neptune, Asteroid, Comet, Galaxies, Moon, Rocket, Sun, Satellite, Rocket.
PLANETS CELESTIAL BODIES SPACE THINGS
Task 4
In groups they make a model of the Solar System with plasticine. They have to put in order from the closest to the furthest from the Sun.
Then each group tell a sentence to the rest of the class using the substitution table (comparatives and superlatives )
