=Week 1:=
 * Introduce the Solar Planets to children by displaying and discussing a planet poster. Identify the planets positions and look at the sizes of each planet. Use the painted polystyrene ball planets, made during Week 1 of Art activities to count planets and also to position on the mat as they are on the poster in order of planet size. Identify the largest and the smallest planets. Allow each student a turn to position and align the planets in size order on the mat.**

=Week 2:=
 * Introduce the students to the website of "Coolmath".**


 * This website layout looks like it is from outter space! Im****agination is the key to todays lesson. Allow and encourage students to transform their computer screen into a space ship windscreen and travel into space! Choose addition and subtraction games and "add the planets".**
