In this word search worksheet, students solve a word search by locating forty words related to ships. The word list includes sea, sink, and SOS.

Students explore American values. In this American history lesson, students read passages from Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea. Students collaborate to conduct research in order to build a timeline of the events surrounding the sinking...

In this phonics riddle worksheet, students solve six riddles associated with words with the -ink sound in them. Students choose their answers from a word bank provided for them.

Students examine why some objects float in water while others sink and the ability of something to float does not depend entirely on its weight. Archimedes' principle is introduced and buoyant force is discussed. Practice calculations...

Students experiment with water density, temperature and salinity. In this water lesson, students observe how the coldest water sinks to the bottom of a test tube, and how saltwater sinks in comparison to freshwater.

Students identify the various states of water and its natural flow downward. As a class, students take digital pictures of different forms of water and create a multimedia presentation describing their photographs. Groups of students...

Students participate in an experiment about the weight of water. They work together to discover that seawater is more dense than fresh water. They also determine which objects float and sink.

Fourth graders, in groups, experiment with density and the displacement of water by creating and designing their own boats and seeing which boat holds the most centimeter cubes without sinking..

Learners stuff a paper towel in the bottom of a glass so that it does not fall out when you flip it upside down. They have to tell why or why not they think you can plunge the glass all the way into the sink without getting the paper...

Students discover that air takes up space by watching the teacher demonstrate a simple activity using a glass, a piece of paper towel, and a sink full of water. They discuss their findings.

Students visit a swimming pool and brainstorm different water sports and what benefits swimming has over other types of exercise. They then discuss buoyancy and water pressure and when how objects sink or float before playing a game of...

Eighth graders determine the density using mass and volume. In this science lesson, 8th graders explain why some materials float or sink. They estimate the density of objects based on whether it floats or sinks in a liquid of known...

Students end up learning the formula for density and calculate the densities of various materials, and predict if they sink or float.

First graders develop skills of scientific inquiry. They determine which objects float and which sink.

Young scholars participate in an experiment to determine if a toy boat will sink or float. They make the boats out of different materials and determine its carrying capacity by adding pennies. They graph their findings on a classroom graph.

Fifth graders define density as the amount of mass per volume a material contains, compare the densities of several types of materials, especially those that sink in water compared to those that float. They use two different methods to...

In this Titanic instructional activity, students read several passages about the sinking of the Titanic. Students then answer 3 questions about the passage.

Seventh graders define density in their own words. In this physics instructional activity, 7th graders solve density problems using its mathematical formula. They explain why some objects flow and some sink.

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 social studies learning exercise, students complete a word search puzzle by circling words related to the Titanic sinking. Words include those related to the causes of the sinking as well as terms commonly associated with this...

Students explain what density is in their own words. In this physics lesson, students perform the condiment experiment and explain why some float and some sink. They share their findings in class.

Students explore the recent Russian submarine tragedy. They examine the facts related to the vessel's sinking, then research the opinions of others regarding this event. They explore the impact this event has on their world.

Learners formulate a hypothesis using critical thinking skills. They use an orange to examine the displacement of water as the orange sinks or floats.

First graders discuss with the teacher if everything will float in water. They observe a marble and determine whether it will float making predictions as a class. After observing the results, they discover that liquids exert an upward...
