Physical objects of properties and materials

In the Oak room during small group, the teacher introduced a sink or float activity. The children tested a variety of objects to see if they would sink or float. They were able to form hypotheses on the objects they chose to place in the water before dropping them in.

The cotton ball floated first and then it sank -Makayla

I think the rock will sink because its hard -Lamar

 

I think the pen will float because its small -Alana

I think the spoon will float because its small like the pen -Ashtin
