You and your partner must choose which role, as listed on the next slide, you want to have. After visiting your own resource pages, you and your partner should come back together to make your own solar system. There will be a more detailed explanation after looking at each of your resource slides. I have also included a rubric of what I will look for in your presentation and project at the end of the PowerPoint.
