Learners see that a carrot slice sinks in fresh water and floats in saltwater.

In this physics activity, learners will explore buoyancy.

In this quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity), learners will see the effects of convection and understand what makes hot air balloons rise.

Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

Experiment with liquids of different densities and create liquid layers. For example, oil and water have different densities: oil floats on water because it is less dense than water.

This activity about density provides instructions for making a miniature "lava lite" with just salt, oil, water, and food coloring.
