    Our solar system consists of the Sun and everything that orbits around it, including 8 planets, dwarf planets, asteroids, comets, and moons. The inner planets closest to the Sun are Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars, which are made mostly of rock and metal. The outer planets farther from the Sun are Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, which are much larger gas giants. Students will research one planet to learn details about its characteristics like length of day/year, features, and moons to present to the class in a project.
