Diving Raisins
Students hypothesize and observe what occurs when raisins are dropped in a carbonated liquid. They examine buoyancy and how density effects ascent and descent.
Curated OER
Density Destiny
Sixth graders measure and investigate the densities of several objects. They, in teams, determine the mass and volume of each of the 5 objects and record the measurements in the data table.

Measuring Density
Young scholars explore the concept of density. They use the the formula Density = Mass/Volume, one can determine where certain liquids and objects will settle in a graduated cylinder. In addiiton, they design a process to separate the...
Curated OER
Density Lab
Pupils use an Excel spreadsheet to calculate the density various liquids. They take pictures of their results.
Curated OER
To Float or Not to Float - Density
Pupils experiment floating a variety of objects in various liquids. They discover how density affects the ability of an object to float and apply the concept of density to solve problems.
Curated OER
Density
Students work with a partner to record observations on various materials. Working together, they calculate the mass and volume of each material and then combine them and shake them for a period of time. In their journals, they record...
Perkins School for the Blind
Volume, Mass, and Density Boxes
Mass and density are difficult topics for kids to understand, and even more difficult when you have visual impairments or blindness. Learners will make boxes and fill them with cotton, sand, or crushed paper. They will feel the density...

How Many Cells Are in the Human Body?
Investigating the large numbers of science is the task in a simple but deep activity. Given a one-sentence problem set-up and some basic assumptions, the class sets off on an open-ended investigation that really gives some...
Curated OER
Come On Down!
Begin with an introduction to famous deep-sea submersibles. Learners work in groups to gather information on different vessels and then share with the class. Each group then uses water displacement to help calculate the density of...
Curated OER
Why Do Some Things Float?
Young scholars recognize that density determines whether objects sink or float. In this sink or float lesson, students experiment with plastic in three liquids. young scholars drop their objects into the liquids and observe and...
Curated OER
Density of the Human Body
For this density of the human body worksheet, students measure several parts of the body to calculate the body volume. Students convert the body volume to body mass and body density.
Curated OER
Introduction to Density
Seventh graders define density in their own words. In this physics lesson, 7th graders solve density problems using its mathematical formula. They explain why some objects flow and some sink.
Curated OER
Density Worksheet
In this chemistry worksheet, students identify and describe that density is the ratio of the mass of the substance to the volume of the substance at a given temperature. They also respond to various questions that refer to density in...
Curated OER
Move that Tower
Students investigate ways to find the density of irregular shaped objects. In this physics lesson plan, students calculate density using its mass and volume. They explain why some objects float or sink in water.
Curated OER
Causal Patterns in Density Phenomena
Students define density as a relationship. Through experimentation, they explore the association between the mass and volume of pure substances. Students create a data plot and analyze the patterns between mass and volume. Students...
Curated OER
Rocks, Their Mass and Volume
Students measure volume using water displacement and mass using a balance. Once they have calculated these two values they will then calculate density while at the same time working on long division. After the activity and explanation of...
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
Density Worksheet
Find the mass, volume, and density in five different equations with a straightforward worksheet. Each equation prompts kids to work through word problems of varying difficulty and to find the necessary measurement using different formulas.
