Task3. Read and say:
The nearest planet to the sun is Mercury, then come Venus, Earth , Mars, Jupiter. Saturn, Uranus
and Neptune.
Each planet is different. The
planets closest to the sun are
hottest. They take the least time to
travel around the sun and their
orbits.
The planets furthest from the sun
are coldest and take longest to orbit
the sun.
Why some planets are hotter than the others?
Why some planets are colder than the others?
