Students learn how the Moon orbits Earth and Earth orbits the Sun in a hands-on, concrete approach. Pictures, directions with an example, a colorful poster and an awesome orbits flip book are included in this 20 page file.
**File revised on 6/15/13! Please redownload if already purchased! This file is also part of a larger unit, Solar System Spectacular: Calling all Junior Astronauts. This unit was added to TpT on February 20, 2012!**
I thought I was ordering the run off for the planets so that each of my students could make a flip book. THis is good, but not what I'm looking for. Where can I find the flip book directions/copy of the planets?

Loved the simplicity of the model-- all of my students were able to grasp the concepts of revolution and rotation and then take them to the next level. Thank you!
Great to hear!! We are so happy your students enjoyed it! :) Thank you so much for your
wonderful compliment!!

The way it is written in the blog it seems like the flip book comes with this individual part. I bought this part, which is great, but I had to go back and buy the whole thing, so I was charged twice.
Hello,
Thank you for your purchase. We apologize if you were confused about how the file and unit are worded on our blog. You are correct, the flip book and awesome orbits are sold separately but also together in the entire unit. I will see if I can make that more clear in the blog post so that it does not confuse anyone else. I am happy to send you another $3.00 file to cover the cost of what you spent in addition to the entire unit. If that interests you, please email us: teachers@lessonplansos.com
Thank you for letting us know,
Melissa :)
Hi, I'm sorry you were disappointed in your purchase. We will take a look at the price and the file again to make sure it's priced properly. Thanks for your feedback. :)

HI, I bought your lesson today and for some reason I am unable to print pg. 4-13. Do you have any suggestions, or can you send it to me as an attachment through email? It is wendi.kissane@rockwallisd.org ; or if you have a suggestion on what I might try that would be great too. Like I said I can print pages 1-3....confused..

This comes with that awesome solar system fold-out file folder as displayed on your blog? I think this is what the blog is saying, but I wanted to double check. Thanks!
Hello! Thanks for your message! I think that you are interested in the Solar System Flip Book- which was pictured on our blog. The Solar System Flip book is different than the Awesome Orbits. However, both are included in the Solar System Spectacular file. I hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any questions!
Thanks,
Melissa
