- Density of common liquids
- Each lab team will determine the density of water and one of the sample liquids. The class will then compile their information.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 6 and 8 English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science)
- By Sansia Coble.
- Design technology: Children's engineering
- This unit includes design technology projects linked to major themes in engineering. All the lessons and activities support national and state standards. They include materials lists, procedures, student data sheets, and assessment strategies. The lessons vary in grade level and can be modified up or down.
- Format: lesson plan (multiple pages)
- Exploring properties of matter with submersibles
- This inquiry-based learning activity allows students to explore the relationships between mass, volume, density, and buoyancy as they manipulate various materials to construct a submersible “vehicle” for deep-sea research.
- Format: lesson plan (grade 8–12 Science)
- By Miriam Sutton.
- Fluid Properties and scale models: Applying the Reynolds Number
- In A mathematical model to describe fluid behavior, page 3
- During this lesson, students will gain a more realistic understanding of the use of scale models and understand that conditions beyond similarity of the objects are necessary for a scale model to function in the same manner as the actual object. The students will gain knowledge of how the properties of fluids, specifically density and viscosity, affect the movement of fluid around objects.

- A mathematical model to describe fluid behavior
- Middle school students will learn how to use math to model and predict natural phenomena. Through hands-on labs, students will explore the behavior and effects of fluid in and around objects and organisms. Students will investigate and create fluid transport systems and gather data to calculate natural frequencies. Using scale models to gain a better understanding, they will use data to predict real-life effects on trees and other structures.
