T1 W5

EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

• We are EXPLORING our context of wai safety by investigating Aotearoa's drowning statistics
• We are EXPLORING our context of wai safety by recognising what density is and calculating densities of different objects using our formula
• We are EXPLORING our context of wai safety by observing the relationship between density, mass and volume.

Kia ora ākonga, this week we will be looking at understanding and measuring densities. 

Plan for the week is as follows: 

Tuesday:  Calculating and understanding densities 

Wed/Thurs: Scientific literacy /Researching Aotearoa's drowning statistics. 

Friday:  Finishing off work set from last 2 weeks - most of you did not do the relief work I had set. 

Success Criteria: 

• • calculate the density of liquids and solids when given the mass and volume
  • calculate the density of solids by calculating the volume (measuring the length, width, and height) and determining the mass by using a balance
  • Being able to create  a graph representing Aotearoa's drowning statistics ( male v female/ ethnicity)
