Description
This unit is aligned with the expectations of the Ontario Science and Technology Curriculum (Understanding Matter and Energy). This unit was designed during COVID-19, where the Ministry of Education issued every student in Ontario to “Learn-at-home”.
These lessons are aligned with the Ontario Science and Technology Curriculum. Once you have purchased this product, you will have access to each of the six lessons. There are four elements to each lesson - Engage, Explore, Explain and Extend. Included in this bundle is a pre-assessment Google Form Quiz, which will help you know what your students know about systems in general.
Lesson Overview
LESSON #1 ~ What are Fluids?
Fluids make up a large part of our surroundings. They are so much a part of our lives that we often take little notice of them. In this lesson, we will explore the uses of everyday fluids, as well as, explain the differences between solids, liquids, and gases, using the particle theory of matter.
LESSON #2 ~ What is Viscosity?
One property of fluids is how they move or flow. What would happen if these fluids did not flow the way they usually do? In this lesson, we will explore, compare, and explain the viscosity of various fluids. We will examine how temperature affects the flow rate of liquids and gases.
LESSON #3 ~ What is Density?
Density describes how closely packed together the particles are in a substance. In this lesson, we will explore and compare the densities of various fluids. We will also learn how to calculate the densities of these liquids and determine which will sink and which will float.
LESSON #4 ~ What is Buoyancy?
Have you ever wondered why some things float and others sink? What is the connection between an object’s density and the forces that act on it in a fluid? In this lesson, we will explore the forces that affect fluids, Archimedes Principle, and how it relates to natural and man-made materials in everyday life.
LESSON #5 ~ Pressure in Fluids
Pressure is the amount of force applied to a given area. It can increase with depth or a change in altitude. In this lesson, we will explore how pressure in fluids move from an area of high concentrations to an area of low concentration. We will also explore how pressure systems, such as hydraulic and pneumatic systems work in everyday objects.
LESSON #6 ~ Fluids and the Environment
From the air, we breathe, to the water we drink, and the fuels that we put into our cars, fluids are a part of our daily lives. Every so often, we may hear stories on the news of accidental oil spills or toxic chemicals being released into our atmosphere. In this lesson, we will explore the damaging effects of fluid spills on the environment and determine if we can prevent such disasters in the future.
