CLASSIFYING OBJECTS IN
THE SOLAR SYSTEM

Kit #352S — Developed by SEPUP
Students use sets of SEPUP/Lab-Aids cards to identify different
kinds of objects found in space, with a focus on those observed in
our Solar System . The cards contain comparable characteristics of
the different objects and students use this information to develop a
system of classification. They then compare their own classification
system with the standard system used by astronomers . Students
then apply their knowledge by analyzing the reasons for the
reclassification of Pluto and deciding whether they think it should
be classified as a planet or a dwarf planet.
Accommodates unlimited classes, each with 6 groups of four
students.
