Sink or Swim?

Teaching science is easy with this fun activity!



You will need:
Bucket or container for water
Small objects
Sheet of paper
Pencil/Pen


  • Make four columns on the sheet of paper. 
  • Mark one column as name of object, one as sink, one as swim (float) and the other as results
  • Have children grab different objects and write the object's name on the sheet of paper
  • Fill the bucket with water
  • Before putting the objects in the container of water ask each child if the object will sink or swim
  • Mark appropriate column (sink or swim)
  • Drop one object in the bucket
  • Did it sink or float?
  • Note the findings on your paper
  • Repeat until all objects have been observed.

How many did you get right?
