B'nai Israel Community Day School

Paper Planetarium

Here's what you'll need...

 

• Construction paper, black and colored
• Glitter glue
• Scissors
• Large paint brush
• Wax paper

Here's how you make it...

 

1. Cut out circles in different sizes and different colors.

2. Cut a piece of wax paper about 12" long (make it longer if you'll be framing it with a paper bigger than the standard 81/2" X 11"). With a large paint brush, paint on glitter glue all over the wax paper and then place your planets on top of the glue.

3. Cut a frame from a black piece of construction paper (standard 81/2" X 11"). The border in the picture is 1" thick. Place on top of the wax paper to frame your solar system, and trim around the edge.
