The Planet Walk Conclusion

The purpose of this activity was to have a feel of how big the Universe really is. All the planets were based on the suns diameter witch was 6 inches. We walked 6 inches at a time to walk it off. I noticed that the father the planets are away from the sun the more spread out they are from each other. I found it interesting that even though the sun was only 6 inches in diameter the distance to Pluto was really far. The thing that worked well was that the park was down the street so it was really easy to get everything organized. If I was to do this again I would change the location because the hills made it hard to see the other planets.
