Instructional Ideas
  • Begin the presentation by asking students which state of matter is most common in the universe; most won't realize that it is actually plasma
  • Divide the class into groups and have each research one of the scientists mentioned in the presentation: Pascal, Archimedes, Bernoulli, and Torricelli
Classroom Considerations
  • Requires a strong math background
Pros
  • Covers the topic comprehensively, so you do not need to supplement it with any outside text
  • Utilizes guided practice problems throughout
Cons
  • None
