Planetenentdecker

New learning app for the planetary System

Planeten Entdecker: The interactive website that brings the universe within reach for primary school children! Discover the universe with fun and ease to fulfill your primary school students’ need for interactive and fascinating learning about planets!

Are you ready for the journey into the universe?

“Planeten Entdecker” is an interactive website that takes the burden of lesson preparation off teachers and offers students an exciting way to explore the planets. With customized learning materials and playful elements, it brings the planetary system directly into the classroom. Previously, preparing for planetary topics took a lot of time and energy for teachers, as putting together suitable materials was a complex and time-consuming task. Students struggled to understand complex information and the distraction of other digital media in the classroom was a challenge.

“Planeten Entdecker” solves these problems by providing customized and interactive learning materials. Teachers save time in preparation, while students discover the planetary system in new ways through exciting games and interactive learning content. In addition, they learn what makes life in the solar system possible, from the importance of the sun as an energy supplier to the special conditions on the individual planets.

Alongside the alien Ivorix, the children are taken on a journey to all the rocky planets. In addition to a variety of educational games, exciting facts await the children there. The learning app combines fun and knowledge in the right proportions. Once all the planets have been successfully traveled to, the children can test their newly acquired knowledge in a final quiz and finally get to know the other planets in fact sheets.

It’s easy to get started with Planeten Entdecker. Just visit the website and immerse yourself in a fascinating journey through the universe.
