Two density worksheets and a table of common densities will have students practicing the density formula (solving for each of the three variables) while applying the concept to their everyday life. The first worksheet uses simple algebra to solve for each of the three variables. The second worksheet focuses on critical thinking and uses some real life examples. (Density data is thought to be correct, but not intended to be used as an absolute reference.)

My experience includes 28 years teaching secondary science in public and private high schools, including work with severely emotionally disturbed adolescents in a hospital setting, affluent students in a private school setting, homeschool students, and most recently public school students. Of the last 12 years, I've taught two years in a very large affluent suburban high school with privileged students, but most recently my passion has been to work with a large low income minority population in the outskirts of Atlanta. Most recently I have taught Chemistry and AP Chemistry, with some Physics and Physical Science. Through the years I have also taught Earth Science, Anatomy and Physiology, Biology, Genetics, and Microbiology. I have also served as Science Division Chair at our high school, and served on a number of curriculum and test writing teams on a local and state level.
