Sci8 - Matter: Topic 6&7: buoyancy and fluid pressure

Today we are:  learning about buoyancy and fluid pressure
I will: learn how buoyancy is related to density or average density and how fluids can exert a pressure
I can: define buoyancy and fluid pressure
I can: change the average density of an object
I can: use fluid pressure to keep my boat dry.







1.  Let's start with some origami.  Go to this site and make a small boat out of a 1/4 sheet of paper.

2.  Now we are off to the lab to do some experimenting!
