Emma and Olivia had the option to do an extra credit project for science. They are studying the solar system. The instructions were to make a solar system, label each planet clearly and tell 3 facts about each. Emma painted Styrofoam balls hung her planets in a box.
She used the front of the box to note her 3 facts about each planet. She found this idea on the Internet and brought it to life.
Olivia did a 3-D poster for hers. She painted all of the Styrofoam balls, we cut them in half and glued them to a foam board. She drew the orbit lines with a paint pen.
She just had separate note cards for her 3 facts on each planet.
They came up with this all on their own and I helped them put it all together. Out of 25 kids only 5 did this extra credit and according to the girls there were no 2 alike. We are so proud of them. They are such great students...always striving for the best.

Great Project - the girls did amazing. I am so proud of their creativity and drive. Extra credit is a great way for the teachers to encourage going the extra mile in your work. Congratulations Emma and Olivia on a job well done.
