During the final week of this unit, students will work in pairs to compare another planet in the solar system to earth. Groups will first study and review their chosen planet and complete a question worksheet on both earth and the chosen planet. They will then transfer this information to a venn diagram. After completing the venn diagram the group will write a paragraph using the venn diagram as a guide. They will then add photos and illustrations to their paragraph.
This part of the unit will be done independently, with help from the teacher as necessary per group. The teacher will act as a guide to answer questions, provide suggestions, and check work.
As a finale and culmination of the unit, students will participate in a celebration and sharing on the last day. Pairs will share their completed projects with the whole class.
