Objective: • Today I will be able to: • Apply the water displacement method to calculating density • Correctly solve density problems • Informal Assessment – monitoring student questions and group interactions during the lab • Formal assessment – analyzing responses to the exit ticket, lab and practice problems • Common Core Connection • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them • Attend to precision • Use appropriate tools strategically
Lesson Sequence • Evaluate: Warm-Up • Explain: Methods for Calculating Density Notes • Engage/ Explore: Water Displacement lab • Elaborate: Density Practice Problems • Evaluate: Exit Ticket
Warm - Up • Take out your lab from yesterday • Check off the lab self-assessment sheet to see how you did on the lab
Objective • Today I will be able to: • Apply the water displacement method to calculating density • Correctly solve density problems
Homework • Study for a Metric System/Dimensional Analysis/Accuracy and Precision Quiz Friday • Finish Density Practice Problems
Agenda • Warm-Up • Methods for Calculating Density Notes • Water Displacement lab • Density Practice Problems • Exit Ticket
Calculating Density • Remember, Density = mass/volume • Mass is determined using a scale • Volume is calculated several different ways
Finding Volume • To find the volume of a liquid, use a graduated cylinder • Make sure to read the bottom of the meniscus
Finding Volume • Length x Width x Height • Volume of a regular object, such as a wooden block
Finding Volume • Water Displacement Method - Read the initial volume of water in a graduated cylinder - Place object into cylinder - Read the final volume of water - Final – Initial = Volume of the object
Density Water Displacement Lab Ms. Ose will assign lab groups
Lab Safety/ Clean Up • No closed toe shoes or aprons are required • If you spill, clean the water with a paper towel • When you finish collecting data, return the lab area as you found it
Density Practice When you finish the lab activity begin working on the Density practice problems. Whatever problems you do not finish will become your homework.
Exit Ticket • Which density problem was the most difficult?
