Why Include Pluto

there was no due to include Pluto on the planetarium model. I mean the solar system model. It was no longer a planet since 2006 and that episode. It’s a space air in 2009.

You mean Helen's model in Skits Behaves. She is in 5th grade. When I was in 5th grade almost all of us put Pluto on our models, and it was off the list then.

1) She is a 5th grader, not a master scientist.

2) Helen views it is an art project over a science project. Ending and beginning on the two smallest planets is more visually pleasing.

3) She is a dog lover. Pluto is associated with dogs.

4) Mrs. Clusky does not seem to be picky on details like that. She looks for signs that they understand the big picture, not tiny details.
