Introduction
A little bit about me.
Why is viscosity important?
What are we going to do today?
•
Learn about the viscosity of liquids.
•
Learn how to compare the viscosity of different liquids
and how viscosity changes with temperature.

Discuss your results.
Think of extension ideas.
Now What?
What can you do with your new knowledge?
What problems can you solve?
What predictions can you test?
What other things can you do with this idea?
Viscosity Summary
Not all liquids flow readily.
Viscosity refers to how readily a liquid will flow.
Liquids that flow more slowly than others are
more viscous, and seem to be thicker and
slower moving.
The viscosity of a heated liquid is lower than
that of the same liquid when cooled.
Follow-Up Ideas
Search for more viscosity information on the
Internet. Use this to create a presentation.
Use Scratch to make a viscosity animation.
Develop a song or skit about viscosity.
Do a viscosity project with another school.
Create a report or video for publication.
