DENSITY & BUOYANCY
This week, we will return to the unit on density and buoyancy so students can have an opportunity to apply their knowledge in several fun labs. On Monday, students will participate in a lab to determine the densities of three mystery canisters. They will then learn how to calculate pressure, force, and area using a balloon trap demonstration on Tuesday. In the labs on Wednesday and Thursday, students will create their own submarines and foil boats to further explore the topics of floating and sinking. We will conclude the week on Friday with a story and video about Archimedes' Principle.
