      6.RP.3  Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems Differentiation: For gifted students or younger students you could change the percentage amount to make it easier or more challenging to figure out the "winner's tax."

    In this game students roll a dice and depending on the number they rool they put that many chips in a cup.  At the end of each round the students must count up their chips and winners must put a 20% "winner's tax" back into the cup for the next game.

    This is a good project for engaging students in learning about the planets, the order of the planets, and the way the planets orbit. This is also a great project for understanding design process

    Be sure to point out that it's hard to get the right ratio for the size and distance, but this model might capture some of the planets' coloring and special features.
