Astronomy Review Game III – Outer Planetary Topics A ROCKY BLAST OFF LARGE AND BLOATED FAR FAR AWAY BEYOND -BONUS- SPACE STUFF 1 6 11 16 *21 2 7 12 17 *22 3 8 13 18 *23 4 9 14 19 *24 5 10 15 20 *25 FINAL QUESTION ______________ Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy

How to play… Don’t play like Jeo_ _ _ _ y. Class should be divided into several small groups. Groups should use science journal (red slide notes), homework, and other available materials to assist you. Groups can communicate quietly with each other but no sharing answers between groups. Practice quietly communicating right now? Practice Communication Question: Your group gets to order one pizza and you can have two toppings. What does your group want?

Final Category (Bonus) = 1pt Each Final Questions = 5 pt wager Questions 1-20 = 5pts Each Final Category (Bonus) = 1pt Each Final Questions = 5 pt wager If you wager 5 on the last question and get it wrong you lose 5 pts. Wager 5 and get it right you get 5 pts. Find the Owl = Secretly write “Owl” in the correct box worth 1pt. “I’ll be about this big.”

Note – The Main Asteroid Belt will be included on this “Outer Planetary” Review Game although it’s considered part of the Inner Solar System.
