Investigate the moons and rings that orbit the planets, the asteroids and comets that orbit the Sun, and the heliosphere that surrounds the entire solar system. Read about the interplanetary magnetic field, the solar winds caused by plasma exploding out of the Sun, and the aurora borealis caused by the interaction of solar winds and Earth's magnetic field. Topic: Solar system URL: http://www.cosmos4kids.com Our solar system is made up of planets and their satellites, the sun, comets, asteroids, meteoroids, interplanetary dust and gas. Learn how the solar system is measured and access chapters on the sun and solar wind and the major planets. The movements of the planets and their origins are also discussed. A chart of the major planets compares their size, rotation periods, surface gravity and distance from the sun. Is the sun a star? Can you name the all of the planets? These answers are here. You can also explore related terms such as star or visit the space directory for an index of related information and articles. Topic: Solar system URL: http://www.worldalmanacforkids.com From the formation of the solar system to the debate over Pluto's planethood, Fact Monster is filled with informative articles about the solar system. Read about the sun, the moon, and each of the planets. Calculate your age and weight on other planets. Discover where the planets and their satellites got their names. Find out when you can see Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn in the sky. Take a look beyond Pluto to the possibility of a tenth planet, or even more!

Gain a greater understanding of orbits, as you find out about the comets and asteroids that circle the sun too. Investigate what Albert Einstein had to say about gravity, and learn about how gravity works. While gravity pulls you or a pencil toward the ground, the sun's gravity pulls on the planets. Identify the inner and outer planets and understand that Pluto is different. Topic: Solar system URL: http://content.scholastic.com Get the answers you have been looking for right here about the solar system. Learn what the solar system consists of and how many planets are present. A diagram shows the location of each of the planets. Continue on to page two to learn how the solar system formed, how old it is and how far it reaches. There is also information about the planets, asteroid belts, comets and much more. This is a great source for facts about our solar system. Topic: Solar system, Solar system--Origin URL: http://amazing-space.stsci.edu Subject Headings: Using Sears as the authority, there are several subject headings that would be appropriate for the objective of comparing and contrasting the earth and other planets in our solar system. Outer space Solar system Planets Space environment In order to make access to these resources easier, I would update the catalog records in Destiny to include these subject headings. Then, when the students enter the library, I will demonstrate how to do a subject heading search using Destiny Quest to find relevant materials. “Quick and Dirty” Version: A real life scenario may be that a teacher provides me with only one hour to prepare materials for their class. The following are the quick and necessary steps I would take in order to prepare a useful bibliography for the class. Determine the topic and AKS that the teacher is addressing. Conduct a Destiny search for relevant books, videos and DVDs in the collection. Pull the determined items from the shelves to a table for easy user access. Conduct a Galileo search for relevant articles. Review bookmarked websites for relevance and conduct a search through WebPath Express for relevant websites. Prepare some suggestions for how the resources can be used. References: Bishop, K. (2007). The collection program in schools, concepts, practices, and information sources.

Reflection: I think this was a great project to pull together many of the aspects of cataloging. By gathering materials in the actual media center it absolutely facilitates access and with the inclusion of websites and Galileo articles, technology is incorporated as well. I found that technology was especially important for this assignment, as the books in the collection were somewhat dated. Researching the appropriate Sears subject headings helped me to better understand that aspect of standard accepted practice. It was also easier to incorporate information literacy when using a specific topic. Shannon and I work very well together, and we collaborate easily. For this assignment, we both worked on creating the annotated bibliography, I was responsible for the selection criteria, subject headings, “quick and dirty” version and references and Shannon was responsible for the procedure log and the objective and grade level. 6380 Bibliography Rubric Criteria Self-Check Complete - 13 points []Procedure log (1) []Objective and grade level (2) []Annotated bibliography, 20-30 items (annotations include: location info, description, instructional idea) (5) []Subject headings (2) []"Quick-and-dirty" reduction (2) []Rubric with self-assessment (1) 13 points Fit - 2 points []For the most part, items on the list seem to match the objective and learners.
