    4.4.1:  Investigate transportation systems and devices that operate on or in land, water, air, and space and recognize the forces (lift, drag, thrust, and gravity) that affect their motion.  Students will study the monorail to determine how it operates, what generates the power, and what are the effects to our environment.

      Sticky Note: This could also be added to a science lesson where students have been creating vehicles and also have a class vehicle and class ramp that students could test. That way they could compare their own vehicles with the class vehicle and same with the class ramp (kind of like a control subjects). It could also be added to math lessons because of the measuring involved in each part of the activity.

      Simple activity for most, but if certain students struggle, have a couple that are pre-lined to show where students need to fold, or even pre-creased to help them complete the instructions.

      For students who struggle to follow directions have some that have dotted lines showing them where they need to fold the paper.

    Good activity that children alway seem to enjoy.

      Students can design a water wheel in groups and see how the wheel works. To extend this experiment students could then work together to make improvements to their wheel. This activity could also be connected to social studies. Students could see how water wheels have evolved over the years and what their uses were and are.

    Students can build a water wheel and see the force of water in motion. They can also experiment with different forces and see how they affect the water wheel.

      Have students work in pairs or small groups to experiment what happens to the ball if you spin it faster or slower, make bigger circles, or what else they can spin in the jar. Have them make predictions, then record their findings.
