Properties of Air: Science 6.5.1, 6.5.2
Students will demonstrate the properties of air and insert videos and images of those experiments into the template. (Record the experiments with video. Insert them into this tempate)
Les propriétés de l'air: Sciences 6.5.1, 6.5.2
Les élèves feront des démonstrations des propriétés de l'air et vont ajouter des vidéos ou des images de celles-ci dans le gabarit.
Record video directly to Drive with the School Video Recorder for Drive
Bernoulli's Principle: Science 6.5.3
Students use the template to create their own animation to describe and demonstrate instances in which air movement across a surface results in lift (Bernoulli's principle.) Air moves faster across the top of the airfoil.
Sciences 6.5.3 Le principe de Bernoulli
Les élèves utilisent ce gabarit afin de créer une animation qui décrit et démontre comment le mouvement de l'air sur les sufaces produit la portance.
Bernoulli's Principle: Science 6.5.3
Another option for this outcome: Students create a common craft video that describes and demonstrate instances in which air movement across a surface results in lift (Bernoulli's principle.)
Sample Screencast
Adaptations and Propulsion for Flying Animals: 6.5.4, 6.5.5 & 6.5.6
Students will create a Screencastify video explaining their understanding of animal adaptations that allow flight and how these animals fly. Tab recording in Screencastify allows for recording annotations (drawings) on the video.
