My K-W-H-L-A-Q Chart

What do I know?

It started with the Big Bang.

What do I want to k

Why did the planets orbit the sun in the same direction.

How do I find out?

I will Google it and look on good websites.

What have I learned?

It has to do with the formation of the solar system. Since all of the matter that condensed into what makes the solar system bodies was spinning in the same direction.

What actions will I take?

I will make a website and a video.

What Questions do I still have?

I wounder if the big bang was on a different proton it would all be the same.

My Reflection

I thought it was a good thing I did what I did. When I was researching I found my answer and other cool space things. I learned how to do a Trello. I thought it was really fun. I really think people should watch my video. I also liked how I answered a question that a lot of people wonder. It was also fun to learn about space I really didn't know much before.

Hi Charlie! From watching your video and looking at your website, I'm not sure your Essential Question was PHAT enough since it was answered with a sentence or two from a website. When we agreed to this Essential Question, didn't you say that you would expand the topic past its answer & learn about the formation of the solar system too? Did you learn about that, but forget to include it in the video? If so, please re-record and show me what you learned. Thanks!

I wish I understood why all of the planets have orbited in the same direction for such a long time and I am very glad that you have helped me with this.
