if i make round orbits around the Sun and place the planets in their

<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br>
I agree with Emmanuel, we shouldn't just do a lesson then quiz. It
has to be interactive, the child has to learn "without knowing
it".<br></span>
<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br>
A similar idea on what is done in explore activities, having a
real solar system, with each planet having its label, its own
size, distance of the Sun and own revolution around the Sun could
be a good start for example (play/pause buttons, click on planets
to get information)...<br>
Then having another level where we can ask to click on specific
planets or other questions like that...<br></span>

complicated for children but may provide some interesting
ideas/data.<br></span>
<span style="color:rgb(0,0,0)"><br>
Once we have agreed, can you please create a task in phabricator

<div>Hello! I'm Aman Kumar Gupta, a 2nd year UG at
IIIT Bhubaneswar, India. I've been going through
GCompris over a month and have come up with an
idea about an activity which i want to work on.<br>
</div>
<div><u><b>Idea:</b></u><br>
</div>
This activity is regarding Solar System, which
would teach kids about the planets and their
properties in our Solar System, like Planet's
name, their size, distance from the Sun, Duration
of day and night there, time taken by it to cover
one revolution around the Sun etc.<br>
</div>
<div><b><u>Way of presentation:</u></b><br>
</div>
The activity will consist of 2 levels. the 1st Level
aims at teaching the child about Solar System,
rotation, revolutioin etc by showing pictures and
animations. And the 2nd level will be a quiz, where
some questions will be asked based upon what they've
learned, in an interactive manner.<br>
Example- Which is the 5th planet in our Solar
System etc. which would be followed by 'n'
options(depending upon the question) each and the
child has to drag the correct planet to the
indicated position. <br>
<br>
</div></span>
Any feedback/suggestion will be highly appreciated!<br>
