Early Reader: Sink or Float? / Lynn Salem, Josie Stewart

Activities that can extend this book into other areas of the curriculum or into the home are endless. Here are just a few ideas. Have fun!

Collect a group of objects. Make a guess about which objects will float and which will sink. Try it out. You are testing the buoyancy of an object. Why do some objects float and others do not? How can the buoyancy of an object be changed? Can you change a sinker into a floater? Can a floater become a sinker?

Try these out:

-Place a bottle in the water and then take the cap off.
-Make boats out of different materials. Then change the shape of each boat.
-Add marbles, paper clips, or coins to a boat that is floating.
-Add some dish soap to the water. Watch what happens to the floating objects due to the change in the surface tension of the water.
