Hot Air Balloon Journey
You will write a story about traveling to different places at various altitudes (heights above/below ground level) in your hot air balloon. You will use the addition and removal of heat and weight to describe the transition from one altitude to another.
First, you will fill out a chart planning out your story. Example: Home0 Clouds 30,000 ft Mount Everest 29,000 ft Add 30,000 heat Remove 1,000 heat
When you are finished with your chart, you will write a story about it and include pictures/drawings. Example: It was finally time to try out the hot air balloon I got for my birthday. I added 30,000 units of heat and rocketed up to 30,000 ft, up in the clouds, which looked like cotton candy. I removed 1,000 units of heat and fell to 29,000 ft, where I saw the peak of Mt. Everest, but it was too cold to stay.
