Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Dear Sciencebuddies
i live in Türkiye. i do tutoring kids by using my stem education certificates. i did this activity for 5th class kid. i bought materials and i printed out pages that he needed. He already knows planets. He did this activity and while he was doing this activity,he found it enjoyable.İn Türkiye, this subject is for 6th class. But the thing is he totally enjoyed because he was happy to measure, blowed the balloons and writing down everything on page. He was so careful by doing it. What i am curious about, since this activity is for 6th class, it is still ok to do with 5th year kid. He already knows planets. He joined the observation of Jüpiter.
Sincerely
Havva Aksaç

Hi - It is wonderful to hear that your student enjoyed this STEM activity to create a model of the solar system.

This is part of our collection of short "STEM Activities" at Science Buddies, which work well in the classroom or at home. These activities do not have grade-level ratings.

The activity has been written with guided directions and explanations that make it work well for a range of ages. For informal exploration with a student, in the classroom, at home, as part of tutoring, hands-on activities like this are great.

If your student needs to do a science project in the future for school, we recommend browsing projects in our "Science Projects" area. This contains science and engineering projects in more than 40 areas of science, and these are written for students to do as independent science projects. https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... e-projects

I hope this helps.
