Lesson 3

Sink and Float

Est. Class Sessions: 3

Homework and Practice

  • Assign the the Homework section in the Student Guide. Students explore the characteristics of objects that sink and float, and use mass to volume ratios in solving problems.
  • Assign DPP Items I–N. In Bit I, students solve a problem involving elapsed time. In Task J, students use function machines to evaluate patterns. In Bit K, students practice the division facts. In Task L, students solve a geometry riddle. In Bit M, students find decimal and fraction equivalents.
  • Assign Challenge N as a Problem of the Week. Students evaluate and generalize patterns represented in a function machine.
  • Assign Home Practice Parts 3–4. In Part 3, students practice computation, and in Part 4, students compare fractions and decimals.
