STATION 4:Graduated cylinder measure volume of an irregular objects in mL
 Knowledge may give weight, but accomplishments give luster, and many more people see than weigh.
-Lord Chesterfield
Set the graduated cylinder on a flat surface.
When reading the volume of a liquid, read the bottom of the meniscus, or liquid level.
Read the scale and determine the scale intervals.
Read the before level and record it with units.
Then carefully lower the object in the cylinder. Read the after level and record with units.
Take the difference between the two readings and that is the volume of an irregular object.
Wait to rotate to the next station.

6. STATION 6: Graduated cylinder measure volume of an irregular objects in mL
“All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike and yet it is the most precious thing we have.” - Albert Einstein
Set the displacement chamber on a flat surface.
Fill the chamber up to the top. Water will pour out due to the spicket. Wait until it stops.
After it stops place a graduated cylinder underneath the spicket to catch any of the new water displaced by the object’s volume.
Now lower the object in the chamber.
When reading the volume of a liquid, read the bottom of the meniscus, or liquid level while on a flat surface.
Read the scale and determine the scale intervals.
Read the before level and record it with units.
Wait to rotate to the next station.

7. STATION 7: Graduated cylinder measure volume of liquid in mL
“Let not a person do what their sense of right bids them not to do, nor desire what it forbids him to desire. This sufficient. The skillful artist will not alter his measures for the sake of a stupid workman. “
-Mencius
Set the graduated cylinder on a flat surface.
When reading the volume of a liquid, read the bottom of the meniscus, or liquid level.
Read the scale and determine the scale intervals.
Read the level and record it with units.
Wait to rotate to the next station.

8. STATION 8: Metric Ruler measures length in mm.
“The only true measure of success is the ratio between what we might have done and what we might have been on the one hand, and the thing we have and the things we have made of ourselves on the other.” - H.G. Well
Read the ruler and determine the proper side to use.
Line the edge up against the length of object 8. Remember the length is usually the longest side unless said otherwise.
Make use the ruler is flat against it and at zero.
Read the number of mm on the ruler and then estimate to the next decimal place.
Record the length to the nearest tenth of a mm and unit.
Wait to rotate to the next station.

9. STATION 9: Graduated cylinder measure volume of liquid in mL
“You can often measure a person by the size of their dream.” -Robert Schuller
Set the graduated cylinder on a flat surface.
When reading the volume of a liquid, read the bottom of the meniscus, or liquid level.
Read the scale and determine the scale intervals.
Read the level and record it with units.
Wait to rotate to the next station.

10. STATION 10: Metric Ruler measures volume in cm 3 “Never measure the height of a mountain until you have reached the top. Then you will see how low it was. “ -Dag Hammarskjold
Read the ruler and determine the proper side to use.
Line the edge up against the length of object 10. Remember the length is usually the longest side unless said otherwise.
Make use the ruler is flat against it and at zero.
Read the number of cm on the ruler and then estimate to the next decimal place.
Record the length to the nearest tenth of a cm and unit.
Repeat for base and height.
Then calculate volume by taking length x width x height = volume
Wait to rotate to the next station.

11. STATION 11: Electronic Balance measures mass in grams
“The measure of a man's real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out.”
- Thomas B. Macaulay

“Common sense is the measure of the possible; it is composed of experience and prevision; it is calculation applied to life.” -Henri Frederic Amiel
Read the ruler and determine the proper side to use.
Line the edge up against the length of object 12. Remember the length is usually the longest side unless said otherwise.
Make use the ruler is flat against it and at zero.
Read the number of cm on the ruler and then read to the nearest tenth.
Record the length to the nearest tenth of a cm and unit.
