Help! I'm Under Too Much Pressure!
Students play with a ping pong ball sized piece of modeling clay observing what happens to the clay as they play with it and write their observations in their notebooks. They share the results of their observations introducing the term...
Curated OER
Causal Patterns in Air Pressure Phenomena
Students examine why air pressure is hard to notice. They observe the height of a liquid in a tube over time and lift a table with balloons.
Curated OER
Passive Causal Agents and the Omnidirectional Nature of Air Pressure
Students study passive causal agents, such as air pressure, in a system. They conceptualize air pressure as passive and omnidirectional, with molecules that make up the air bouncing off surfaces with which they have contact in all...
Curated OER
Water Pressure - Observing Water Flow
Learners discover that pressure increases the deeper the ocean becomes. They determine how water pressure differs at various depths by observing water flow.
Curated OER
Causal Patterns in Air Pressure Phenomena
Pupils consider the relationship between pressure and temperature. They observe a demonstration and explore the relationship between heat and volume when pressure remains constant. Students discuss relational causality and consider how...
