Takeoff - Tuesday, May 12
1. Read Takeoff (8) in your One Note
2. Try "Work on It" to fly your paper airplane from last week. Try to complete at least 1 of the tasks, but you can try for all 3 if you wish.
3. Complete my questions:
What parts of your airplane design allowed it to complete its task (flying over an object, doing a loop, etc)?
What were some problems you had when building and using your paper airplane?
You do not need to do the Communicate questions!
The questions can also be found under the pages for an easy to use space to write your answers.

Lift on Wings - Thursday, May 7
1. Read Up Lifting Theories in your One Note
2. If you are able, try the "Work On It" mini experiment. If you can't try it at home, that is okay.
3. Research how to make at least two different types of paper airplanes. There are plenty of websites and youtube videos on how to make a paper airplane. Try to find a plane that will usually fly straight - we will have an experiment next time where we use your planes.

Heating & Cooling Fluids: Thursday, April 23
1. Watch the video below explaining how hot air balloons work.
2. Open the Heating & Cooling Fluids page in your class notebook.
3. You have two choices: a) Complete the experiment by watching the video. or b) If you want to try the experiment at home, work with your parents or older siblings. You will need: a plastic bottle, balloon, 1 container of very hot water, 1 container ice water. Watch the beginning of the experiment video to see how to set up the balloon and bottle.
4. While watching the video or conducting your own experiment, complete the experiment page. MAKE SURE TO DO YOUR PREDICTION BEFORE YOU SEE WHAT HAPPENS!
5. Complete your observations and explain what is happens to air when it is heated and when it is cooled.

Four Forces of Flight: Thursday, April 16 (Try to complete by Monday, Apr 20)
Thursday, April 16
For science today, we are going to be trying to do an experiment. To begin, you need to find the page titled "Four Forces of Flight" and "Rotocopter template" in the science section of your onenote binder. Read the instructions on that page. Below I will link a video showing how to cut out and fly your rotocopter.
We are going to try to have this completed for Monday, April 20

Thursday April 9
Today we are going to start on our new unit in science, called flight! As we always do to begin a unit, we will start with some new vocabulary. You need to find a definition, put it into your own words, and draw a picture to go along with it. You do not need to do the definition for Bernoulli's Principle, I will be explaining that in detail in this unit. Please DO NOT email this back, I will give further instructions on what to do with this next week.
