Solar System Word Jumble

Overview:

A solar system-themed word jumble for middle and upper years students, where students unjumble solar system-related words and then crack the code to reveal a joke. Designed for middle and upper years students.

Learning Objectives:

• Develop spelling and problem-solving skills by unjumbling solar system-related words.
• Improve knowledge about the planets, stars, and other elements of the solar system.
• Enhance logical thinking and code-cracking skills while learning fun space facts.

How the Activity Works:

Students will start by unjumbling a series of solar system-related words, such as planet, moon, comet, orbits, and Milky Way. After correctly unscrambling each word, they will use the answers to crack a code that reveals a joke. This activity encourages students to practise their spelling and decoding skills while learning about the wonders of the universe.
