Float your Own Boat Displacement Lab

Created by

This is a tested and established classic lab activity. Students will explore density, volume and mass with this lab. Build your own boat with tin foil, or expand by 3D printing a final design in TinkerCAD!Your class will have fun working in pairs to make a boat out of tin foil that floats as many marbles as possible. They will then explore buoyancy, density, mass and volume as they complete the lab. This includes calculation problems for volume and density.EASEL ACTIVITY: You can now assign thi

3D model of a Comet w/ Peppermints

Created by

3D-PT

A 3D model of a comet brings the lesson from the textbook to life for your students. You can make this with any available art supplies, or you can make edible ones out of candy.I went to the manager of the local Sonic and asked for a bag of the peppermints they give out with each order. These peppermints became the nucleus for many of the students models. You can expand with this project into other models of objects in the universe.
