Studying Space with Dragon



Last week was the beginning of our Space Study for science with Dragon. He has been asking to do this for a while now, so I finally woke up and decided to put our regular "textbook" science curriculum aside! I am already enjoying learning about space along with him.
I am using the Usborne First Encyclopedia of Space as a spine, and he uses this great little colouring/activity/sticker book that has lots of facts for him to read aloud.
Today's topic was the solar system and through the Usborne book links, we found a great site, an interactive virtual model of the solar sytem. Check it out here and click on "launch planet 10".
