WOW !Summer on Uranus is one very long day -42 years.

I chose Uranus because I always thought it was interesting that it was completely made of ice and water. I think that this project was very fun, because I learned so many new things I have always wondered about Uranus, such as if it was possible to live, or make a house on the planet. I think that you should do this for your further fifth grade classes, or how much longer you will be a teacher. Everybody was scared at the beginning because they all thought that the way you explained it, it was going to be a very hard project, but I was excited for it at the beginning and ended up having a lot of fun.
