Sponge Lab

The scientific method is a great way to problem solve but if the students aren't familiar with how it works it does them no good.  The sponge lab is a simple lab that will allow the students to follow the scientific method to discover how much water a sponge can hold.  The important aspects of today's lab is the ability to create a lab report including a detailed conclusion.  The grade for the labs in my class will come from the detailed conclusion. If your student is absent then the lab is linked here.
I will also be going over the homework that is due today.  The students were supposed to complete the cut and paste activity I assigned Monday.
Here is the start up "How much water do you think a sponge can hold?"
