A MISSION FOR SIXTH GRADE SCIENCE STUDENTS INTERSTELLAR DO NOW: DRAW A PICTURE OF THE PLANETS IN OUR SOLAR SYSTEM (IN THE CORRECT ORDER)

Planets in order

OUR SOLAR SYSTEM One light year = 5,878,499,810,000 miles (5.8 trillion miles) Measures distance not time*** What is a theory? An explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiments.

CENTERS How Big Is Earth? Clumping Planets Video on the Big Bang Directions on handout Clumping Planets Video on the Big Bang Answer questions in your notebook Models of the Solar System Read pgs. 79-81 and answer all questions that go with it.

AFTER CENTERS Read the my planet diary on pg. 82 and answer the two questions. Write a list of the planets in order from biggest to smallest.

SCALED TO US! We will line up in height order in the back of the class and decide who would represent which planet if we scaled it down to our heights.

EXIT TICKET Explain how the solar system was created.
