Garden City School Library: Grade 5 Planet Research

Find Information in the Encyclopedia

Type the name of your planet and press Search. A results page will appear. Click on your planet's name in blue. You will probably also see an entry for the god with the same name; click on that next. Information for your bibliography is located at the bottom of the page. NOTE: If the Kids article doesn't have the information you need, click on the World Book Student link at the end of the article.


Find Information in a Book

We have books about many of the planets under call # 523. If you can't find the one you need here, just log into the catalog (user name - CGNlunch#, password - date of birth MMDDYY) and request one from another library.
