Playing and exploring movement as a form of propulsion.
In this lesson, students will explore and experiment with the concept of propulsion through play, discovery, explicit instruction, design challenges, and the use of the augmented reality application Aurelia. Learning and activities can be easily scaffolded to address further concepts such as drag, turbulence, fluid friction, efficiency of energy, adaptation, and body plans.
Estimated time required: 1 class period.
Technology required for this lesson: Laptop/Desktop, Tablet or Smartphone.

In this lesson plan, younger students wrap up a bird unit by making a bird mobile and then write facts on their display.
Prior to this lesson learners engage in the Arcadia Earth app’s Keep the Great Lakes GREAT section to build their understanding of the Great Lakes and its importance to all animals that call this area home, including humans. Next learners explore food chains with a hands-on activity, Linking the Chain. Students then synthesize what they know about the Great Lakes, food chains and how human behaviors can affect both.
