Monday – Last day until after Thanksgiving break to work on science fair. There are still students that need a topic! Parents please encourage your student to find one soon. Sciencebuddies.org is a good site to use.
Tuesday/Wednesday – DQ: Density – Students will work on the density block lab (50 points). During today and tomorrow, students will find and record if the object sinks or floats, the mass, the volume and the density of 12 items. There are also questions that go along with this lab. If the questions are not completed in class, they need to be done at home. The lab is due on Thursday at the beginning of the period.
Thursday/Friday – DQ: Density – Students will work on the density of irregularly shaped objects lab. This lab is 34 points. They will have today and tomorrow to work on it. It will be due on Monday. They will be finding the density of different objects. They will need to find the mass using a triple beam balance, the volume using the water displacement method. Once they have the mass and volume, they can find the density. There are also questions that go along with the lab.
Also – Volume and Density Test is Tuesday, November 22nd. It is around 60 points. This tends to be a harder test. The notes are available online. There will be a review day (Monday). Please encourage your student to study!
