Anchor Charts

So I've been perusing the internet in search of things and I stumbled upon Anchor Charts, the idea behind them is to "anchor" the main idea into your kids' heads.  So we're starting a unit on space and 2 of our vocabulary words are "terrestrial planets" and "gas giants" so I decided to make an anchor chart for those two concepts to make it a little easier to understand. 


So it's almost kind of like a Venn diagram without the comparison part in the middle.  I used butcher paper to make it on and then had to color it in of course, because it wouldn't have been the same without the planets on it.
