Hands-on experiments engage students and make learning memorable. By observing changes in water levels, children grasp scientific concepts in a fun way.
1. Fill the clear container with water until it is half full. 2. Use the measuring cup to note the initial water level and mark it with a marker. 3. Drop one small object into the water and observe the new water level. 4. Measure the new water level using the measuring cup and mark it. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 with different objects. 6. What did you notice about how each object changed the water level?
