Critical Literacy Universe Facts



This is my Popplet And Here I brainstorm facts about the universe. In Mawhera literacy group we have been learning some critical literacy skills - One of which is the skill of backing up our facts with more than one source of information. This important because If we look at only one website we can't know if the contained information is true or false. We can be sure the information is valid if alot of people agree with it which means  there will be more than one website that tells the same thing.

As you can see my Popplet includes multiple websites that say the same fact. For example I found the fact that Earth Is At the Solar System, Orion Arm, the Milky Way, the Local Group, the Virgo Supercluster, the Universe on here, here and here. This makes it really reliable and accurate information.

Also I found Intrusting facts like that Earth Use To Have 6h A Day and The Moon is about 360,000 kilometers away from the Earth.
