Planet Adjectives
Read the newspaper for a few
minutes every day and you will be
on your way to success in school
and life! Kid Scoop is fun to read
once a week, but what can you do
on the other days of the week?
MARS
The Romans
named Mars
after their god of
war, because its
color reminded
them of blood.
This week, use Kid Scoop all
week long. We have created a
fun newspaper reading game for
each day of the week!
Hold on to your
hats! Neptune is
storms, storms and
more storms!
Read the short description of
each of the eight planets, plus
the dwarf planet, Pluto. Each
day, look through the newspaper
for adjectives that describe three
planets. Glue the adjectives near
the planet they describe.

VENUS
Covered with a
poisonous acid,
Venus is the
hottest planet in
our solar system.
The planet’s
thick clouds let
the heat in, but
not out! This is
called the
greenhouse
effect.
MERCURY
Closest to the sun,
Mercury’s days are
a whopping 800° F
and at night the
temperature drops
to 300° F
BELOW zero!

Farthest from the

ASTORIA
SATURN
EARTH
Saturn is nearly as big as its
neighbor, Jupiter, but it is not
so heavy. Scientists say that if
you could find an ocean big
enough, Saturn would float.
Not too hot and not too cold,
it is the only planet where
we know there is life.
URANUS
How heavy is the
asteroid?
Uranus has rings just like Saturn,
but the rings go around the planet
up and down like a ferris wheel.
Through a telescope, this icy
planet looks greenish-blue.
Standards Link: Earth Science: Students
know that each planet has unique
characteristics.

Pretend you are sending
a package into space that,
if life exists on other
planets, will tell about life
on Earth. Look through
today’s newspaper to find
pictures and articles that
you would put into your
package. Tell why you
selected each one.
Asteroids are space rocks
that orbit the sun between
Mars and Jupiter. They come
in all shapes and sizes.
Look through the newspaper
for a number to put into each
of the boxes on the asteroids.
Do the math and find out
what each asteroid weighs!

Satellite Story
The moon is a
satellite. A satellite
is a smaller object
that orbits around
a larger one. Some
satellites, like moons,
are natural. Others
are man-made. People have
launched man-made satellites into orbit around the Earth to
take pictures of clouds and land forms, and to study space.
Natural or Man-Made?
Look through the newspaper and find five things that are
natural. Then find five things that are man-made.
Standards Link: Earth Science: Students know that the Moon orbits the Earth; some
objects moving in the sky are natural and some are man-made.
