Lesson Plan
Objective: Students will share with their partner how the planets compare and contrast.
California Standards:
3 ES 4.d.: Students know that the Earth is one of several planets that orbit the Sun and that the Moon orbits Earth.
3 IE 5.e.: Collect data in an investigation and analyze those data to develop a logical conclusion.
This lesson is designed to introduce the students to the solar system. Students have already filled out the first two sections oftheir KWL chart.
