Activity stations of the basic experiential teaching in physics on the topic of "density"

The students: experience...

  • Louis perceives the journey to the Atlantic motorically and vestibularly.
  • He explores the beach and perceives sand, shells and driftwood tactilely.
  • Louis swims in the Atlantic and experiences the salt water.
  • He experiments with his drinking water and sees his eggs and tomatoes sinking in the glass.
  • He fetches sea water and sees how the tomatoes and eggs float.
  • Louis experiments with the seawater and manages to filter the salt out of the water.

Included are the story with the methodological considerations, the worksheets, the notes on downloads and the forecast maps.
The story is 10 pages long.


Funding objectives:

  • Processing of experiences during analogue offerings.
  • Promotes tactile, vestibular, auditory, gustatory, olfactory and visual perception.

Lesson objective:

  • the students experience that fresh water has a lower density than salt water.
