Students learned about density today and how to calculate density.
D=M/V
Students worked in their INB to complete a graphic organizer on pg 10. See an example of excellent student work below:
So why all the hype about density? Well, if ice were not less dense than water we would have no ice tea! Life in N.C. without ice tea would be a crime. Watch the video below to help you better understand density and the importance of ice tea. LOL
Hi there, for those of you new, I am Ms. Le and I am originally from Fayetteville, N.C.
I went to Campbell University for two years and ultimately received a degree in Biology from Fayetteville State University. I moved to Houston, TX where I resided for four years working in the medical field but eventually returned to N.C. where I call home. I have spent 24 years in the medical field as a medical laboratory manager and a member of the senior nursing staff. I eventually owned and operated a three medical multi-disciplined office. I later went on to be certified in medical Laser Therapy. I love Science and decided I wanted to teach Science to young people as I found there was a need for teachers in the field that have the hands on approach to Science inquiry.
I try to make Science fun while teaching students the state mandated content. I believe in Project Based learning and feel that all students can be successful "Scientists". I look forward to teaching your children this year.
