Grade 8

Overall Expectations

• demonstrate an understanding of the properties and uses of fluids.

Specific Expectations

• explain the difference between solids, liquids, and gases in terms of density, using the particle theory of matter
• explain the difference between liquids and gases in terms of their compressibility
• explain in qualitative terms the relationship between pressure, volume, and temperature when a liquid (e.g.,
  water) or a gas (e.g., air) is compressed or heated

Overall Expectations

investigate the properties of fluids

Specific Expectations

• follow established safety practices for using apparatus, tools, and materials (e.g., use syringes and tubing for the purposes for which they were designed)
• investigate and compare the density of a variety of liquids
• investigate and compare the densities of a variety of liquids
• use appropriate science and technology vocabulary, including viscosity, density, particle theory of matter, hydraulic, and pneumatic, in oral and written communication
  

Expectations

Produce two- and three-dimensional works of art that communicates a variety of ideas for specific purposes and to specific audiences, using a variety of art forms

Expectations

• organize their art works to create a specific effect, using at least two of the principals of design specified for this grade.

Introduction

We are going to apply the principals of balance to the layout of your manga panels. There are many things to consider when laying out your panel such as size, shape, number, and that the same principal we discussed yesterday apply equally to panel layout as they do to paintings.

Rationale

Fluids are an important component of man systems. Fluids have different properties that determine how they can be used. Fluids are essential to life.
