This hands-on project is an impactful way to show students how truly immense our solar system is! You get to decide if you want your model to show scale planet sizes or the scale distances between planets. You can combine a planet-size model of one scale with a distance model of another scale. But if you want size and distance to be the same scale, you’ll need to spread your model across at least half a mile!
Specific directions on how to calculate size/distance scales are included.

"The Student Transitions Guide is intended to provide school staff in Saskatchewan a framework to support students who are transitioning to a new school. This document explains the correlation between transition to new schools and reduced levels of achievement. It also outlines the importance of supporting new students, helps schools identify if a student needs support, what may be required and an action plan that will assist schools.
There may be local considerations that are not included. It is strongly recommended that each school in Saskatchewan develop a local student transition protocol to provide the best opportunity for success for all the new students in their school." (p.2)
