Great.  Just when Boo learns that there are nine planets and how to memorize the names...they change it all on me.

So, where do I find a unit study on Pluto that teaches my son it's no longer a planet?

My Very Excellent Mother Just Served Us Nine

It just doesn't have the same ring.

Update:  In my reading I came across this new mnemonic sentence for the planets:
My Very Excellent Mother Just Said "Uh-oh, No Pluto!" 
LOL  I got that earlier from reading this blog when I was searching for into on Pluto.

Uh, oh, No Pluto!

Oh, thanks for sharing that new sentence. I had to laugh but It will stick with me. I'll share with my girls.
