What Is Special About Polyethylene Food Storage Bags?
Students participate in an investigation in which they compare a polyethylene bag designed for recycling or disposal with a polyethylene food storage bag. Students use hexane to determine the differences between the low density...
Exploratorium
Hand-Held Heat Engine
See the direct relationship between pressure and temperature using these classic science toys. As individuals hold the glass bulb, the liquid inside reaches it's boiling temperature, which is just a bit above room temperature. As the...

Can You Make A Penny Float?
Young scholars explore the concept of density by trying to make a penny and other materials float.
Curated OER
New Jersey Estuaries
Learners experiment to discover that salt water is denser than fresh water by creating color coded solutions. They examine how heavy rainstorms and high tides develop layers of different degrees of density.
Curated OER
Diving Raisins
Students participate in a mini lab to explore density. In this density lesson students view a demonstration and answer questions.
Curated OER
The Floating Golf Ball
Fourth graders discuss density. For this floating golf ball lesson students complete a lab activity on density while working in groups.
Curated OER
How Dense Are You?
Students examine how density is a value that describes what type of a material an object is made of regardless of its shape or size.

Soil Analysis Lesson Plan
Students practice calculating density and examine examples of the physical characteristics of soil. They solve a "crime" based on the evidence and laboratory investigations.
Curated OER
Plastic Identification Lab
In this plastics worksheet, learners experiment with an unknown plastic and determine the polymer name and resin code by using a flow chart of various tests. They answer five questions after they collect their data.
Curated OER
Applied Science - Science and Math Post-Lab
Students explore optical illusions. In this Applied Science lesson, students view optical illusions and record the data of what they see. Students graph the data that they collect.
Curated OER
Viscosity and Density
In this viscosity and density pre-lab worksheet, learners define these two terms and determine how to find relative viscosity and the volume of an irregular shaped solid. This worksheet has 13 short answer questions.
Curated OER
Laboratory - Density of a Material
Students conduct a lab (with water, guar gum and sodium borate) and carefully record physical and chemical properties and changes throughout the session, and experiment with weighing by difference.
Curated OER
Kids Camp
Here is a post-experiment lab sheet that is to be used with an activity involving diet coke and regular coke. There is also a graph that learners must complete which goes along with an experiment on density and volume of a variety of...

Investigating Properties of Water: Temperature
Investigate how temperature affects the density of water and stratification that occurs in bodies of water when temperatures vary. Water of differing temperatures is given different colors to see the layers that form. The lesson is meant...
Curated OER
The Coriolis Effect
Learners will determine the direction of Earth's rotation as viewed from the north and south if they were suspended out in space. They will model how the rotation of the Earth causes currents to be deflected in different directions for...
Curated OER
Example of Convection
Compare the density of different salt solutions and then observe currents that are caused by the difference. Set up a demonstration of dynamic equilibrium. The intent with these activities is to begin building understanding of density...
Curated OER
Come On Down!
Students research the implementation of a research vessel used for ocean exploration. In buoyancy lesson students will construct a device that shows neutral buoyancy.
Curated OER
Motion in Fluids
Students explore physical science by participating in a science activity. In this liquids lesson, students discuss how fluids can be affected by motion unlike solids. Students define other scientific vocabulary terms and conduct a motion...
Curated OER
Applied Science - Built Environment Pre Lab (Morse Code)
Young scholars study communication. In this telegraph instructional activity, students examine Morse code and the composition of an elementary telegraph circuit. They listen to a presentation and try to create Morse Code messages on a...
California Institute of Technology
Physics of Light
Gummy bears are tasty, but did you know they are also used to determine color and light properties? Use the activity as a way to demonstrate light absorption, light reflection, and refraction with high schooler....
