What are schools teaching children about the solar system nowadays?
Question:
Answer:
8 planets. It was offically declared on August 24, 2006, that Pluto would be classfied as a dwarf planet along with Ceres and 2003 UB313
Our schools are not teaching anything about the solar system right now because unfortunately that is not part of the no child left behind curriculum. But the t.v. is teaching them that there are now nine planets.
make that 8 planets, Pluto was just demoted
Hi. "My Very Excited Mother Just Saw Uncle Nick" would work. But nowadays most schools are closed for the summer.
i hope they're teaching that there are 8. but they should at the very least teach them what *really* happened to pluto: http://wigu.com/overcompensating/2006/08...
They are now saying Pluot isn't a planet
