10. Using the information from the planets you collected (letters b and e), how does a planet’s distance away from the sun affect the length of its orbit?
11. Compare and contrast the terrestrial planets to the Jovian planets. How are they alike? Different?
Summary: Today I learned.... Cornell Notes Criteria for success: - Notes are set up in Cornell Note format - All vocabulary is defined in student friendly language (not copied from google) - 9 or more of the questions are answered fully AND correctly, using information and examples from the video - A summary of what was learned is at the bottom, using 2-3 complete sentences. 4= All success criteria is met 3= 3/4 success criteria is met 2= 2/4 success criteria is met NP = none of the success criteria is met If you finish Early, 1. Watch THIS VIDEO about Newton's Gravity and Einsteins Gravity 2. Watch THIS DOCUMENTARY about gravity
4. Watch THIS DOCUMENTARY about planets in our galaxy
