Explore

Students measure the mass and volume of water, plot data on a graph, and derive the density formula

Page 4: Teacher Demo – Can you make an orange sink?  Students measure the mass and volume of water, plot data on a graph, and derive the density formula

Explain

Students predict if objects will float or sink based on density and explain their reasoning

Elaborate

Students will sink leaf disks. As the leaves produced oxygen during photosynthesis, they will rise.
