1. Today is Monday, March 4, 2013 Homework: Warm UP:
Study for Ch. 11 Test (Wed.)
Warm UP:
Open your textbooks to page 362 and begin reading over the lab in table groups. What is the point of this lab? (Talk about it and then tell me)

2. Goal for Today
SWBAT demonstrate the ability to apply concepts of density and buoyancy by designing a boat that can hold cargo (gram cubes).

3. Quick look at this week….
Today = Lab
Tomorrow (Tuesday) = Trivia
Wednesday = Chapter 11 Test
Thursday = Science Fair Results…setting up graphs
Friday = Science Fair Results….choosing the best graph!
K-T BOARDS ARE HERE!!!!! (you get them next week!) YEAH!!!!

4. Lab time…..

5. Closing it up…. What do “density” and “buoyancy” mean?
Density = mass per unit volume
Buoyancy = the tendency of an object to float
Can a dense material be formed into a design that is buoyant?
Yes, like a boat that is made out of steel, asphalt, and concrete.
