The Solar System Song
Written By: Rebecca Kleen
Sung to the Tune of: Oh My Darlin'
Solar System, Solar System, Solar System on my mind
Oh It's just the Solar System and it orbits 'round the sun.
Mercury, then Venus third comes Earth and then Mars
Jupiter is the biggest, Saturn had all the rings.
Next comes Uranus with it's many moons then Neptune with it's wind
Last is Pluto, it's the smallest and the farthest from the sun.

A Working Classroom. Each child works on a "work and Mat" choosing his or her own activities.
