Let us read a short story about ‘Chester Greenwood’ who designed
something very interesting to overcome his problem.
‘Chester Greenwood lived a long time ago in Maine. Chester had a problem. His ears got very cold in the
winter. He set a goal. He wanted to find a way to keep his ears warm. Chester Greenwood planned to use
a heavy wool scarf to stay warm. He tied it around his head. It kept his ears warm. However, the scarf was
itchy. He wanted to find a better solution to his problem. He planned again. He made ear flaps to cover his
ears. He used different materials and realized wool is the best suitable for earmuffs. Chester made oval
loops out of wire. Then he tried to cover the loops with soft materials. This kept his ears warm. With the
help of what he had already made, he modified the designed and made a very comfortable band over the
ear muffs. ‘

I'm the orange-colored dot, way up high.
Which planet am I? __________________________________
2. With over 63 moons, you might say I have a lot.
Look with a telescope to see my big, red spot.
The spot is a wind storm, swirling around.
High in the night sky is where I can be found.
Which planet am I? __________________________________
3. I'm blue and green and a little brown.
I'm a small planet with life all around.
They call me the third rock from the sun
I don't have many moons - just one.
Which planet am I? __________________________________
4. No matter how hard you look, you'll never find me,
Unless you have a telescope to help you see.
I was once called a planet, but not any more
Now I'm just a “Dwarf Planet,” but too important to ignore.
Which planet am I? __________________________________
5. Look very close to the sun and you'll spot,
A tiny, cratered planet that's very hot.

.Can you guess my name at last?
