Mini Labs – Tuesday, June 6
Today we are working on 2 mini-labs. For each one students are to make a paper just like the one shown in the picture on the right. for the Materials and Procedure sections just write “see class blog” and move on.

CLAIRVOYANT KETCHUP
Students are to complete both exit slips, attach a rubric provided in class and submit into the Science folders.
Today we covered how pressure can change the density within a substance. Check out the lesson plan we completed by clicking of the link below. The questions that you are to answer and hand in are also there. Then watch the video to see what we did.
For this mini-lab your Problem/Question: “How will squeezing the bottle affect the overall density of the water and/or ketchup packet and what will happen?”
