In Earth Science we learned a lot about Earth, and we also learned about our solar system. Our solar system has one Sun and eight planets. The planet are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Jupiter is the biggest planet, and Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. Earth is the only planet that has life and water. We also learned about minerals, stones and so on. All rocks are divided into three types. The first type of rock is Igneous; it comes from volcanoes. The second type is Sedimentary; it makes layers. The third is Metamorphic, made from heat rock and pressure rock. In this class the most fun thing was making an experiment. Our experiment was making sugar crystals. I love this lesson because I understood what the teacher was teaching.
