6. Read the introduction to Lesson 3: Density Predictions” and the
Objectives for the lesson together. (POM pp.30-31).
7. Make and test predictions on whether or not various objects will float
or sink.
8. Get a copy of Student Sheet 3.1: Using Density to Make Predictions.
9. Complete the top part of Student Sheet 3.1: Using Density to Make
Predictions.
10. Carefully read through the procedure for Inquiry 3.1: Building a
Density Column (POM pp.33-34).
11.Conduct Inquiry 3.1: Building a Density Column.
12.Complete Student Sheet 3.1: Using Density to Make Predictions.
13.Clean up (This needs to be done thoroughly because this stuff gets
really sticky and messy after each hour).
a. Please wash out each graduated cylinder with a drop of soap, a
bunch of water, and scrub it well with the brush (scrub outside
and inside the cylinder).
b. Rinse the graduated cylinders out completely so there is no
more corn syrup, oil, or soap bubbles left inside.
c. Place the thoroughly rinsed graduated cylinders upside down on
paper towels in the center of your table.
d. Please make sure that the bins are also clean, dry, and restocked
with everything needed for the inquiry (you will need to put two
new/dry graduated cylinders in each bin for the next class).
14. Once your materials are all clean and put back and approved by Mr.
Emmi you can get your “Lesson 3 Homework” and begin answering
the questions.
