co-op class - astronomy

A few weeks back we learned about Saturn and I let each student make their own Saturn to take home with them.

Ella's multicolored Saturn! Gracelyn's blue with orange dots Saturn!

materials-
styrofoam ball
old cd
paint
toothpick


directions-
1. cut the styrofoam ball in half
2. paint both halves of the styrofoam ball
3. let dry overnight
4. place a toothpick in the center of one of the halves
5. sandwich the cd between the two halves

*Our cd isn't staying in place, so if I were to do this project again, I would try glueing the 2 halves to the cd. If anyone tries this, let me know how it worked for you and what kind of glue you used!
