  1. Complex Knowledge: demonstrations of learning that go above and above and beyond what was explicitly taught. Knowledge: meeting the learning goals and expectations. Foundational knowledge: simpler procedures, isolated details, vocabulary. Limited knowledge: know very little details but working toward a higher level. • Understand how our view of the solar system has changed over time and how discoveries made have led to our changing our view of the solar system. • Learn planetary characteristics such as number of moons, size, composition, type of atmosphere, gravity, temperature and surface features. • Understand the movement of planetary bodies. • Understand which planetary characteristics are more important than others when it relates to our understanding of other worlds. • Understand how proximity to the sun influences planets. • Understand the methods and tools scientists use to learn about other planets and moons in our solar system. • Understand the conditions needed for a habitable world and determine if there are habitable worlds in our solar system or outside the solar system. • Understand how we look for and study solar systems other than our own.

  2. Question of the Day • What objects make up the Solar System? • [This is a question astronomers have studied for centuries.] • How do scientists keep track of and organize everything in our solar system?

  3. A Mnemonic Device Helps you remember things: • I Picked My Apple’s Today • Interphases, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase • DOC • “Captain Aquarro Picks Artillery Targets, General Canfield Leads Village Liberation,” Scotty Said. • Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagitarius • Roy G. Biv • Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet • Kids Playing Cards On Freeway Get Smashed • Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species • My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nachos • Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

  4. Create Your Own For the Planets • Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune

  5. Organizing the Solar System • Please look at how your cards are organized RIGHT NOW! • They should be this way when you leave!! • I can’t make more (they are color copies) • Please be careful

  6. Organizing the Solar System • We will explore and categorize objects in the Solar System, following their chronology of discovery. • You may discover (just as scientists did) that you may need to revise, edit or create categories for objects as new objects are discovered.

  7. Organizing the Solar System • You will sort these cards into groups based ONLY on the images and data provided -- and logical reasoning. • Try not to bring in any pre-knowledge that you already have about objects in space. It will be hard, but try to organize these based only on the information provided. • It is not sufficient to put something into a category for the simple reason that you “want it there” or “know where it belongs.” • Don’t base it on color or shape

  8. You could use more or less than 4 Name of category Criteria to join group Name of category Criteria to join group Name of category Criteria to join group Name of category Criteria to join group

  9. Record in your notebook
