Exploring Density Sinking and Floating Science Lab 5th Grade Project Worksheets
Give your students a hands‑on density STEM challenge that goes beyond another density worksheet or density lab. This harbor engineering project turns mass, volume, and density into a real‑world design problem. In this Harbor Engineers density project, students work as ship designers to build model vessels that carry dense cargo (coins, marbles, washers) without sinking. They define the problem, brainstorm and sketch 2 designs, build and test their boats in calm water, run an additional challenge

Buoyancy Project Sort Pictures of Things That Sink and Things That Float
This is a little craftivity to do in science when you are learning about buoyancy. We did it the day after doing an experiment. The pictures in the sort were not exactly the same as the objects we sorted so the students had to apply what they learned the day before about the type of objects that sink and the type of objects that float.

A booklet put together based off of different science experiments to do with candy pumpkins, and vinegar and baking soda. With the candy pumpkins, students will see if it dissolves, sink, or floats in water, milk, oil, and vinegar. Students will be able to see if there is a "Ghost Finding" as you put vinegar and baking soda together in a bottle with a balloon on top. Draw a ghost on the balloon and watch the ghost appear as you drop baking soda into the bottle filled with vinegar. Apple eruption
