Outcomes for Science, Technology & Society (STS) & Knowledge
- Investigate and describe fluids used in technological devices and everyday materials.
- Investigate and describe the composition of fluids, and interpret the behavior of materials in solution.
- Investigate and compare the properties of gases and liquids; and relate variations in their viscosity, density, buouancy and compressibility to the particle model of matter.
- Identify, interpret and apply technologies based on properties of fluids

|
BUOYANT FORCE: Upward force that a fluid exerts on an object; opposite to the pull of gravity on an object in a fluid.
NEUTRAL BUOYANCY: Is when the force of gravity is equal to the buoyant force

Skype Lesson
This lesson consisted of 3 Skype sessions between Mr. Allison and Mrs. Allison's Science 8 students from St. Mary's Sexsmith and St. Kateri respectfully. The students first needed to come up with a "Science Magic Trick" that would be interesting. Prior to presenting, the student's needed to know how the magic worked so they could answer a question from the other class, as well as, explain the entire process if the other class was incorrect. The students needed to following the scientific process when trying to figure out all magic tricks - Procedure, Hypothesis, Observations, Analysis, Conclusion.

The students needed to come up with one good question that would help direct them when trying to figure out how the science magic trick worked. They then had a couple of classes to figure out how the magic worked before the second Skype session.
