During that last week, I had the kids work in pairs on planetary research projects. They had a bunch of books to look through to find pictures and interesting facts, then each group created a big poster for their planet.
This is what I got from one of the Venus groups:
When I asked why they had included a picture of a satellite, they told me, "It's to show that there is no satellite around Venus."
I then asked why they had not included a picture of a unicorn or Justin Beiber to show that Venus also does not have either of THOSE things orbiting around it, but the irony was lost on them.
