Candy Bar Density Lab
Students can work individually or in teams of up to 4 on this lab. By determining mass and volume (using 2 different methods: LXWXH and water displacement method) students determine and compare the densities of various fun-sized candy bars. This lab reinforces how to find mass, volume and density and helps explain their relationship to each other. It also teaches the formula for density and reviews independent and dependent variable. Additionally, this lab incorporates practice with analyzing da

Gummy Bear Graphing Lab
This very fun lab gives students practice with creating a hypothesis as well as determining variables in an experiment. Then students must convert their data into a graph. Practice collecting data, measuring and analyzing data is also accomplished. Be sure to test your brand of gummy bears first...some will just dissolve. You don't want those. CVS's Gold Emblem and Brach's brand work very well. :)

Bowling Force, Power & Work Field Trip
This worksheet accompanies your students to the bowling alley so that they can use your lessons on the physics of force, power and work in the real world. Students bring along their pencils, calculators and this worksheet for an afternoon of fun physical science work. They will definitely have a good grasp on understanding the concepts of force, work and power and probably have the formulas memorized after this trip! Also a little review of volume and density in here too.
