Description

Density is an interesting property of matter. This unit starts with phenomena. This resource integrates three subjects into two great lessons on density. The integrated math, ELA, and science lessons on density will help your students understand this concept. Students will learn about density in solids and how to calculate the volume of a rectangular solid.

This Density Unit Includes:

•Step By Step Directions

•Two Lesson plans

•Reading passage

•Follow up pages

•Interactive notebook inserts

NGSS Alignment:

NGSS 5-PS1-1.

Develop a model to describe that matter is made of particles too small to be seen.

NGSS 5-PS1-3.

Make observations and measurements to identify materials based on their properties.

NGSS MS-PS1-2.

Analyze and interpret data on the properties of substances before and after the substances interact to determine if a chemical reaction has occurred. 

Utah SEEd 5.2.1 Develop and use a model to describe that matter is made of particles on a scale that is too small to be seen.

And the Utah SEEd 6.2 Density describes how closely matter is packed together. Substances with a higher density have more matter in a given space than substances with a lower density. Changes in heat energy can alter the density of a material.

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.6.G.A.2

Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths by packing it with unit cubes of the appropriate unit fraction edge lengths, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths of the prism.

This resource contains two hands-on lessons. One explores density in liquids and one explores density in solids. Students will practice reading skills for reading informational text including answering text dependent questions after the read the nonfiction article provided.

Students will used measurement and formulas to find the volume, mass and density of solid objects.

Interactive notebook flaps are included.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed equally.
Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume measurement.
Measure volumes by counting unit cubes, using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and improvised units.
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.
Represent real world and mathematical problems by graphing points in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane, and interpret coordinate values of points in the context of the situation.
