3. Two Astronomy Games Copyright 2004 Cherilynn Morrow camorrow@colorado.edu 3 Game # 1: RUse the first column. RPlace the following images in order from the smallest object (number 1) to largest object (number 9). RIt would be best to write the letter as well as the name of the object in the column. This way, you will have a list that you can consult later. Are you ready?

4. A. THE SUN B. EARTHC. SPACE SHUTTLE D. THE MOON E. THE SOLAR SYSTEM G. MARS H. A GALAXYI. JUPITER F. BEARS
