6/10/07 You need iLife 6 on your Macbook. Focus on academic standards. Outcomes: 1. Make a standards based podcast 2. Learn the podcast 3. Connect podcast to your classroom reality Field trip…Pima Air and Space Museum. What is a standard that I teach? Think of narrated radio show. 3-5 minute narration that goes with pictures that goes on the Web. We teach the enhanced version….with photos. Take a lot of pix that support a curriculum standards. Nose art on airplanes…shapes Come to your chart…brainstorm list of lesson ideas. The end result is to have a standard based podcast. Everyone does his/her own podcast.

Rick Felker Notes Reduce drage by lying down…like Orville did in bicycle races, reduce drag by a third. Little orange crate box…hook toes over bar, no sear belt. 30 miles an hour… U shaped cradle around pilots hips was control device used bicycle chains and pulleys to bend the wings like birds in flight…allowed them to bank the plane Rudders turned when the wings turned so plane turned smoothly Flipped a coin to see who would go first and Wilbur won. Monday Dec. 14 1903 crashed, but said we can do this if we practice with the stick Dec. 17, 1903 34 degrees in Kitty Hawk, 30-35 miles an hour…set up monorail. Orville did the flight, went down the monorail ten miles an hour…stayed up for 12 seconds… 120 feet. Fourth flight Wilbur stayed up 59 seconds, 852 feet. Wind crunched the plane, last flight of flyer one. Tried to sell, couldn’t until 1908. Orvile got govt. contract, Wilbur went on tour of Eupre and was treated like a Rock star. Stayed up 2 hours 20 minutes Wilbur died of typhoid fever at age 45, Orville lived until 1948, saw breaking of sound barrier. Cloth from flyer one was taken to moon with Neil Armstrong in 1969.
