Urbas - Science Week of Sept. 18 - 24

Students are continuing their work learning about and using various science equipment. This week they worked on the concept of density and measured volumes and mass in order to calculate density of different objects. Next week they will be working on my "Unknown Specimen Lab" in which they will determine the density of nine blocks and determine from what material they are made of. More to follow.

Below are some pictures of measuring lab specimens.
