Learners identify the concepts of density, mass, and volume that define the property of a substance. They also determine that the properties of materials, such as, density and volume, can be compared and measured by using rulers,...

Quiz your learners on density, mass, and volume with six equations. Each equation prompts kids to consider an object made of a different material, and to find the desired measurement.

Students solve volume problems. In this geometry lesson, the class watches a video about clean water (link provided) and individuals compare the volume of different prisms, including an actual drinking glass. Extension activities include...

High schoolers determine the solubility product constant and the concentration of a hydroxide. In this solubility product lesson plan, students use a solution of calcium hydroxide to neutralize a known concentration of hydrochloric acid....

So a cylinder does not have to look like a can? By expanding upon the precise definition of a rectangular prism, the lesson develops the definition of a general cylinder. Scholars continue on to develop a graphical organizer...

Groups of young scholars rotate through five classroom stations to estimate, measure, and record volume, length, weight, mass, and area using both customary and metric measure. They evaluate their data to determine how close their...

A simple activity goes a long way in demonstrating the property of porosity to your rock hounds. They will mass a specimen of dry sandstone and then soak it in a pre-measured amount of water. After seven minutes, they once again measure...

Here's a resource that models rising water levels with a linear function. The task contains three parts about the level of water in a cylinder in relationship to the number of golf balls placed in it. Class members analyze the data and...

Learners observe how to measure in metric units.  In this investigative lesson plan students compare different units of volume to see how things are measured.

Young scholars divide into groups of three or four, elect in their group who they think has the biggest mouth. This question will be followed by Mrs. Peters' joke about big mouths and frogs. Students then be asked how they could prove to...

Students practice determining liquid densities in a short, hands-on lab activity. Students use a graduated cylinder to measure out 100 milliliters of a liquid, find its mass using a balance, and record measurements in a data table....

Second graders, in groups, measure the volume of four containers that vary in shape and size.

In this measuring learning exercise, students determine the mass shown on the scale, review how to read measurements in a graduated cylinder, and determine which measuring method is more precise. This learning exercise has 5 short answer...

Students calculate the volumes of regularly shaped objects from measurements of their dimensions. They use several formulas and measure different objects to calculate the density, volume, and mass of the objects selected or assigned.

Students research the development and implementation of a research vessel/vehicle used for deep ocean exploration. In this oceanography activity, students calculate the density of objects by determining the mass and volume.

Students define density in their own words. In this physics lesson, students calculate density using mass and volume. They explain why some objects sink and some float.

In this Care Homework worksheet, students solve a variety of multiple digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems that include fractions, decimals, and percentages. They demonstrate knowledge of geometric formulas...

In this functions worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 6 different types of problems. First, they find the largest value of a given function. Then, students determine the values of the constants a, b, c, dso that the curve is a...

In this gas instructional activity, students practice using the gas laws to calculate volume, pressure, or temperature of gases in 12 different word problems.

In this science instructional activity, students draw several markings on a ruler or graduated cylinder or thermometer to get each of the correct measurements. Then they state what place the marking indicates and the number of...

In this maximum and minimum points learning exercise, students solve and complete 12 various types of problems. First, they find the area of the smallest triangle given the point of intersection. Then, students find the volume of a box...

Middle schoolers investigate Pi. In this mathematics lesson, learners discuss the history of Pi and determine how the approximation of Pi was discovered.

Seventh graders investigate the area and volume of 2D and 3D figures. In this geometry instructional activity, 7th graders create a storyboard explaining their knowledge of 2D and 3D shapes. They analyze their data and interpret...

Swimmers know to float by turning their bodies horizontally rather than vertically, but why does that make a difference? In an interesting lesson, scholars explore buoyancy and the properties of air and water. They test cups to see which...
