Format
This is a 'virtual assembly', and we can have hundreds of participants connected! We do have a few rules about online conduct:
• If your students are joining us from your classroom computer, please arrange your room and projection screen so everyone can see us clearly.
• If you and your students are joining us from your homes, we will have an educator monitoring the Chat feature for questions. We will ask you to serve as a Co-Host and help monitor students for any inappropriate Chat or camera behavior.
• If you will have a hybrid class (some at school, some joining from home), our educator will monitor the Chat and camera behavior; we reserve the right to move any disruptive students to our Waiting Room. You or another school staff member are encouraged to be Co-Host to assist with monitoring camera behavior.
• If you prefer, we can turn off all cameras and interact solely via the Chat feature.
Objectives
• Discover that science is FUN and how understanding scientific principles helps us to tackle everyday challenges
• Define different forces including gravity, air pressure, and the Bernoulli Effect, and describe how they affect our daily lives
• Use the Scientific Method to explain how several common items work

OHIO ACADEMIC SCIENCE STANDARDS
Grade K: Physical Science - Properties of Everyday Objects and Materials
• Objects and materials can be sorted and described by their properties.
• Some objects and materials can be made to vibrate and produce sound.
Grade 1: Physical Science - Motion and Materials
• Properties of objects and materials can change.
• Objects can be moved in a variety of ways, such as straight, zigzag, circular, and
back and forth.
Grade 2: Earth and Space Science - The Atmosphere
• The atmosphere is primarily made up of air.
• Water is present in the atmosphere.
Grade 3: Physical Science - Matter and Forms of Energy
• All objects and substances in the natural world are composed of matter.
• Matter exists in different states, each of which has different properties.
Grade 4: Physical Science - Electricity, Heat and Matter
• When objects break into smaller pieces, dissolve, or change state, the total amount of
matter is conserved.
• Energy can be transferred from one location to another or can be transformed from one form to another.
Grade 6: Physical Science -- Matter and Motion
• All matter is made up of small particles called atoms.
• Changes of state are explained by a model of matter composed of particles that are in motion.
• There are two categories of energy: kinetic and potential
