Objects in Space sort cards

Key words: Universe, Galaxy, Solar system, Sun, planet, asteroid, constellation. This is a sort card activity and powerpoint show to support the task. It gets students thinking about objects in space. The powerpoint show comes in two forms, with or without the word constellation. The addition of the constellation card adds a real opportunity for cognitive conflict and helps iron out a preconception of what a constellation is.
