What’s your favourite planet? Don’t say Pluto! We’ll learn this week that Pluto is a Dwarf planet, not one of the main 8!  

This week’s theme is called “Out of this World!”, and we’re going to focus on our friend Pluto. Did you know Pluto was named by an 11-year-old girl in 1930? It also has a heart-shaped spot on its side! Together we will read Pluto gets the Call by Adam Rex, a story about how Pluto felt when they found out they were no longer a planet. For our craft we will design planet beads to go on bracelets to help us remember the order of the solar system, then play a round or two of space bingo to practice what we have learned so far about space.  

As always, for those who are partying on Pluto and could not make it to our club, we have colouring sheets and a wonderful planet-filled reading suggestion list for you to enjoy!
