You need to be a member to download this file.

The space map is a great cross-curricular activity to get children to think about the size of the planets in relation to each other as well as the distances between them. Get children to create a line of planets using the planet sizes table by drawing them on chalk on the playground. If space is limited it is good to do the sun as a whole class due to the massive size! As an extension you can get the children to write in between each planet the distance it is away from the sun as well as any fun facts they can think of or find out.

This pack contains two planet sizes sheet; one with decimals and one without.

Equipment needed:

- Resource pack

- Chalk
