Identify and discuss the similarities and differences between jovian and terrestrial planets and describe how a planet’s composition and environment plays a critical role in determining its future. After they compare and contrast these two types of planets, students will choose one example from our solar system and go into detail about that planet. Students can highlight a brief history of the science behind the planet, how we have come to understand more about it and explain why it is important to continue to study it.
