Space Trading Cards

We ended our planner on the Final Frontier with a space trading card assignment. Students were required to complete a trading card for the 8 planets (Pluto is a dwarf planet) and any other star, galaxy or satellite that they wanted to. Each card required four facts to be listed on the back. We began by sorting and categorizing our cards to show our knowledge of the Solar System. The last step was to trade our creations. This created a huge problem when one student created cards that everyone wanted. The Discoverers quickly realized that the demand did not meet the supply! Using our knowledge about economics from a previous planner, several students came up with a plan to make more and market the cards for a dollar each!
