2. Thinking About the Solar System The solar system and prepositional poetry…WHAT?! The two make perfect sense when paired together. If you’re wondering what prepositional poetry is, our 3 rd grade HEP students would be the perfect source for an answer. They have studied the solar system and have chosen a topic to depict through this poetry form. Each student has designed his/her own page for this presentation, and we hope that you enjoy what you see. So sit back and let your imagination come alive as we take you on a prepositional journey through space! 3 rd Grade HEP
