'#planetsong #songsforteaching #NASA  I wrote this for my elementary science classes to help to teach the order of the planets (lyrics below).  For a version of this song that uses an Mnemonic with an Elegant Mother, instead of an evil one (I know some of you teach the younger ones) click here: http://youtu.be/LgbL2_jS_mE  Purchase the elegant mother version of this song on iTunes: http://goo.gl/t841vV  Challenge your students to make up their own mnemonics!  See more of Mr. R.\'s science resources at: http://sciencepoems.net   LYRICS  Well, I know there are 8 planets, But which comes first and last?   I need a little planet trick, To help me learn them fast!  My very evil mother,  Just swatted Uncle\'s nose, You shouldn\'t hit your brother, Or bite his two big toes!   My very evil mother,  Just swatted Uncle\'s nose, And that\'s the order of the planets, This is how they go...  Mercury and Venus, Our Mother Earth then Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, They\'re gas giants in the stars! Uranus and there\'s Neptune And now you\'ve said them all, Well Pluto used to be a planet,  Now it\'s way too small...   Well, I know there are 8 planets, But which comes first and last?   I need a little planet trick, To help me learn them fast!  The first letter of each word in the sentence, My very evil mother,  Just swatted Uncle\'s nose, Are the same as the first letters of the planets in our solar system-   My very evil mother, Just swatted Uncle\'s nose, And that\'s the order of the planets, This is how they go!  Mercury and Venus, Mother Earth and Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, They\'re  gas giants in the stars! Uranus and there\'s Neptune Now you\'ve said them all, Well Pluto used to be a planet, Now it\'s way too small...  My very evil mother, Just swatted Uncle\'s nose, And now it\'s red like Rudolph\'s, Like Rudolph\'s when it snows!  My very evil mother, Just swatted Uncle\'s nose, And that\'s the order of the planets, That is how they go!'
