Exoplanet Project is a self-paced project using Google Slides related to the Space Systems unit in Earth Science (Physical Science). It is suggested for 9th or 10th grade, but can be modified for other grade levels. Each slide includes pops of color, clear and concise instructions, steps in the speaker notes section, hyperlinks, and slide numbers. This project can be completed virtually or face to face. Generally, two to three 40 minute class periods would be sufficient but is dependent on class size, access to technology, student needs, etc.
In this project, students will practice key processes: exploring, researching, creating or building, sharing, and reflecting. This is a no prep product that can be easily linked or uploaded as an assignment on Google Classroom or other LMS'. Student work is automatically saved in the drive, they can pick up where they left off, and are able to leave comments for support.
