Science
I can provide evidence that air takes up space, has mass, is capable of being compressed, and exerts pressure, and identify examples of these properties in everyday applications.
I can use vocabulary in referring to control surfaces of an aircraft, such as: wing, vertical and horizontal stabilizers, elevators, ailerons, rudder.
This week we started our unit on Aerodynamics and Flight! Using balloons, we learned that air takes of space: blowing up a balloon; air has mass: the full balloon was heavier than the empty one; exerts pressure and can be compressed. Ask us about the demonstrations we saw in class!
We also learned about the control surfaces of an airplane: aileron, rudder, and elevator. We learned what yaw, pitch, and roll meant as well. We drew a diagram of an airplane and watched a video and read a website to label our picture and explain each.
