No, no and (ha ha) NO!
Today's activity: Find out about WHY Pluto is no longer a planet. Spend some time doing research and then in your Science notebook, on a new page write Pluto at the top and write down the answer to why Pluto is no longer a planet anymore.
These links might help, but feel free to go to other sites and find out for yourself.
