Lab: Investigating Mass and Volume Mark as Favorite (2 Favorites)
In this lab students will become familiar with collecting and recording quantitative data. They will calculate the volume of a solid cube or rectangle using metric measurements, as well as measure the volume of a liquid and an irregular shaped object using water displacement. In addition students will have an opportunity to measure and record the mass of an object using a triple beam balance.

Measurements, Volume | Elementary School
Activity: Understanding Volume Measurements Mark as Favorite (1 Favorite)
In this activity, students will use base ten-centimeter blocks to fill containers in order to understand the concept of volume. Through discussion and review of the data, the teacher will lead them to discover the formula for determining volume.
-
Density, Measurements | Elementary School
Demonstration: Sinking Soda Mark as Favorite (4 Favorites)
In this teacher led demonstration, students will compare their observations when unopened cans of diet and regular soda are placed in a large container of water. They will use their observations to help differentiate between several fundamental chemistry concepts: mass, volume, and density.

Density, Identifying an Unknown, Measurements | Elementary School, Middle School
Demonstration: Household Densities Mark as Favorite (6 Favorites)
In this demonstration, students will make predictions about various household materials and whether or not each will sink or float when placed in water. Data will be collected and then used to calculate the density value of each item. Finally students will analyze the relationship between the density value and the observed outcome, and use their knowledge to identify unknown materials.
