Scaled Solar System Activity: Relative Distances and Sizes of the Planets
For this Scaled Solar System activity, students will work in groups to create a scaled model of the solar system by measuring (and calculating in the case of the more challenging version of this activity) the specific distance to place each "planet" from the "sun". This will help your students understand the relative distances and sizes of the planets while satisfying the visual and kinesthetic learning styles of your middle school students! It also perfectly aligns to the NGSS Standard MS-ESS1-

Graduated Cylinders - Measuring the Volume of a Liquid Assessment
Having a hard time finding assessments for measuring the volume of a liquid? I always pair this assessment with real, hands-on practice in the classroom. I’ve also used it to introduce this topic with the assessment first so the students know how to read the graduated cylinders before you give them one with water in it. This product features 5 different gradients of graduated cylinders (i.e. some go up by 10s, others by 100s or 50s). There are 6 questions per page and an answer document that goe

Density Inquiry Labs (Solids and Liquids) -- Density Tower
This is a fantastic hands-on inquiry lab involving the density of liquids and solids. Students absolutely love this lab and are shocked at the results. In this exploratory lab students are given four different liquids to observe, they then make a hypothesis based on their density. Students then actually test their hypothesis to see if they are correct and at the end of the lab students have an amazing-looking tower to use in order to come up with a conclusion and analyze their results.
