One project that almost every middle schooler gets at least once is the classic solar system model. Teachers love it because it’s fun, creative, and helps you learn about the planets.
If you’re making a standing model, use a sturdy piece of black foam board or cardboard as your base. Paint the background black or dark blue to look like space. Flick white paint with a toothbrush to create stars. 4. Assemble the Solar System Attach the Sun in the center of your base.
Decide if you want a 2D (flat) or 3D (hanging or standing) model. Sketch out your design on paper. Mark where each planet and the Sun will go, and plan the order: Sun, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. 2. Make the Planets and Sun Use foam balls, clay, or even crumpled aluminum foil to make the Sun and planets.
Assemble the Solar System Attach the Sun in the center of your base. Use skewers, dowels, or wires to connect each planet to the base, placing them in order from the Sun. The farther the planet, the longer the skewer should be. For a hanging model, use string to suspend each planet from a hanger or a stick, with the Sun in the middle.
