This is the student-facing slide presentation that introduces the phenomenon, walks the class through observations and driving questions, and frames the evidence students will use for the Phenomena-Based Lesson in the Physics II (grades 9–12) chapter Fluid Dynamics, built around the phenomenon The Draining Tank: Four Holes, Four Depths. It is sold separately from the other two parts of the set.
Complete the set: Fluid Dynamics Phenomena-Based Lesson: The Draining Tank: Four Holes, Four Depths Teacher Discussion Guide; Fluid Dynamics Phenomena-Based Lesson: The Draining Tank: Four Holes, Four Depths Student Response Sheet. Scaffolded version: Fluid Dynamics Scaffolded Phenomena-Based Lesson: The Draining Tank: Four Holes, Four Depths Presentation.
Sections: Standards Alignment; Learning Goals; The Phenomenon - Classroom Teaching Case; Dated Observations; Data Table; Sensemaking Questions And Expected Answers; Talk Moves; CER Prompt (verbatim). Sample item: “Hook: Four holes, one tank of water. The lowest hole sprays twice as far as the highest one - but its water is four times deeper. Twice the spray from four times the depth: what rule connects them?”
What's inside: Student Slide Show (editable .pptx + PDF, 10 slides).
Standards: NGSS High School Physical Science (HS-PS) disciplinary core ideas and the science practices of analyzing data and constructing explanations.
Resource type: Phenomena-Based Lesson – Presentation. Format: editable Microsoft PowerPoint file plus a ready-to-print PDF.
Classroom use: Open with the phenomenon slide show, let students record ideas on the response sheet, and lead the discussion with the teacher guide. Built for Physics II, grades 9–12.
