D. Explanation What are the components of the solar system?

The solar system is composed of the Sun and all the objects that travel around
it. The Sun is orbited by planets and their moons, asteroids, comets and other
heavenly bodies.

What are the eight planets in the solar system?

The eight planets in the solar system are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

What are the inner planets?

The first four planets, Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are called terrestrial
or inner planets. They are solid and are mostly made up of rocks and metal;
they do not have rings. These are the planets closer to the Sun. Among the
four terrestrial planets Earth has one moon, Mars has two moons, Mercury
and Venus has none. The terrestrial planets have common features such as
mountains and volcanoes.

What are the outer planets?

The last four planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are outer or Jovian
planets. They are called gas giants. These gas giants are so-called because
they are much larger than other planets and are mostly made up of gas. They
are set-apart from the terrestrial planets by the asteroid belt. All of these gas
giants have rings and moons. Of the four gas giants Saturn has the most
prominent ring.

What are the compositions of the planets?

The terrestrial or inner planets have solid surfaces. These planets are small
and mostly made up of rock and metal. They have silicate mantle surrounding
a metallic core composed mostly of iron.

The Jovian or outer planets are made up of hydrogen and helium and they
have small rocky core. Aside from being called gas giants, Uranus and
Neptune are also called ice giants. The ice giants have interior composition of
compounds like water, methane and ammonia.

Show a video about the characteristics of the planets.

E. Elaboration Ask the pupils again what is a solar system?

-The Solar System is made up of all the planets that orbit our Sun. In addition
 to planets, the Solar System also consists of moons, comets,

What are the eight planets?

-The sun

What are the two categories of planets?

- Inner and outer planets

Let the pupils answer this.

GROUP ACTIVITY
Group 1: Make a poster that shows your appreciation of the planet Earth to
support life and how to take care of it. Use one whole sheet of long bond
paper and any coloring materials of your choice.

Group 2: Use the Venn diagram to compare the inner and outer planets.
The middle section represents the characteristics of the inner and the outer
planets have in common. A represents the characteristics of the inner
planets that are different from the outer planets. B represents the
characteristics of the outer planets that are different from the inner planets.
Choose your answer from the box.:

F. Evaluation Compare and contrast the planet earth and mars using venn diagram.
