Do you ever wonder about certain things like do planets order themselves in biggest to smallest from the sun or is Earth the only planet that has life and why does it have life?
Well if there are questions that needs answering here are some answers that you might be looking for all your hard questions in this story.

During sometime yesterday Rm 21 and Mrs Lagitupu wanted to find out more about the planets in the universe for our test. Then explained what we had to do and after that we walked outside when we discovered it started pouring down with rain, suddenly we aborted our plans and hurried inside and sat straight on the mat. Mrs Lagitupu gave me and the other 9 people balloons so that we could see what size was the smallest and the largest planet.

Science classified Pluto as a dwarf planet which means that it isn't a nineth planet in the solar system only in the universe. When we blew up the balloons to their normal size or at least to make miniature ones. We learnt that there was life on Earth because their was plenty of air, water and also land. Did you know that our planet Earth is the third planet from the Sun and also take a year to revolve around it. The order from the sun is Mercury,Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and (Pluto).

Did you know if we were on Mercury we would have died!!! It’s true because Mercury is actually the hottest planet in the solar system and also in the universe.  The planet’s direction is always going anti-clock wise. Jupiter is the biggest planet and is also the fifth planet away from the sun. Earth is just the right amount of space away from the sun otherwise we’ll be cooked or even worst dead!!!!!!.

The thing I most struggled with most was blowing up the balloon but then I got there at the end. The favourite part that enjoyed was finding a bit about the solar system because I hardly knew anything about it. I actually learnt about how all the planets move around the sun. If this helped you with all your questions then great. Everything that I learnt was worth writing about especially for this test. Luckily we are  not on the hottest planet that will be freaky.
