Term+3+SPACE+assignment

** 5/6 2010 ** ** Due Date: Wednesday 15th September **  ** This unit focuses on the earth and its surroundings. The earth is part of a changing system. ** ** Students will complete a digital information report about one planet in our Solar System. **   **Getting Started: ** First, get to know your planet. Read as much information about the planet as you can find. Try the Internet, the library; try the [|NASA web site], [|Zoom Astronomy] , [|Nine Planets] , an encyclopedia, and individual books on astronomy and the Solar System. As you're reading about your planet, take notes on key information, such as your planet's size, temperature range, its position in the [|Solar System], moons, atmosphere, any unusual features, when it was discovered, etc. A [|graphic organizer can be useful for this]. Complete planet report graphic organizer before you begin digital presentation. **The Structure of the Planet Assignment **: Start your assignment with an introductory paragraph that states the main ideas that you will be researching. Then write at least four to five paragraphs that clearly describe your planet. Each paragraph should cover one topic (for example, you should have one paragraph that covers the planet's location in the Solar System, how far it is from the Sun, and how long its year is). End the assignment with a closing paragraph that summarizes what you wrote and learned. **Topics to Research and Include in Your Assignment **  When you research your planet; try to answer as many of the following questions as you can: ** The Planet's Name ** : What does its name mean? Many planets were named after mythological gods. ** Position in the Solar System ** : Where is your planet located (for example, Mars in the fourth planet from the Sun)? How far from the Sun does it orbit. Is its orbit unusual? <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Rotation on its Axis ** : How long does it take for your planet to rotate on its own axis?

How does it rate in terms of the other planets in terms of size (is it the biggest, the smallest)? What is your planet's mass? <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Gravity ** : What is the force of gravity at the surface of your planet? For example, how much would a 100-kilogram person weigh on that planet? <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Orbit ** : How long does it take for your planet to orbit the Sun? (This is one year on Earth.) <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Atmosphere ** : What is the composition of the atmosphere of your planet? Is it a thick or a thin atmosphere? <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Temperature ** : What is the temperature range of your planet?

What is its internal composition? What does your planet look like? <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Moons ** : If there are moons orbiting your planet, describe them and when they were discovered. <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Rings ** : If there are rings orbiting your planet, describe them and when they were discovered. <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** How Would a Human Being Fare on Your Planet ** : On your planet, would a person choke in the atmosphere, be squashed by the extreme gravity, float with ease, freeze, burn up, or something else? <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Something Special ** : Is there anything special about your planet? This can often be the best part of the report, taking you off on interesting topics. For example, are there 100-year-long storms on your planet? Are there giant volcanoes? Does your planet have a very tilted axis (giving it extreme seasons)? Have spacecraft visited your planet? If so, what have they discovered? <span style="margin-left: .5in; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-pagination: none; mso-text-indent-alt: -.5in; tab-stops: 11.0pt .5in; text-autospace: none; text-indent: -.5in;">** Discovery of Your Planet ** : The planets that are not visible using the naked eye were discovered after the invention of the telescope (these are Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto).
