Matter Calculations: Volume and Density (harder version)
In this more challenging version of the Matter and Density worksheet students distinguish between mass and weight, chemical and physical changes, density, and volume. They are then presented with different objects, weigh them, calculate their volumes, and determine their densities. They use their calculations to predict whether the objects will float in water. Given densities, students also fill in a density column.

Quadratic Function Activity About Your Dental Arch
Through this activity students will discover properties of parabolas while comparing the parabola they all carry around with them every day - their dental arch. Students will brainstorm ways to measure a dental arch and ultimately take an "impression" of their arch by taking a bite out of a slice of bread. Then they will trace their arch onto a graph, use the graph to generate a table of values, and then use the table to plug into an equation for the most "perfect" dental arch. Students love
