  Science:   Today we are going to learn about objects that sink or float.

  • Watch this science video on Sink or Float

  • Fill an empty sink half way up with water.

  • Gather small objects from around the house and outside (for example: paper clips, leaf, straw, rock, coin, paper tube, key).

  • Look at the objects and predict if you think the object will sink in the water or float on top of the water if you drop them in.

  • Draw a picture to show which items sank to the bottom of the water or stayed on top.  

  • Why did the items do what they did?  What would have caused them to act differently in a sink of water?  Were your predictions correct? Did the items do what you think they would do or were you surprised?
