6 Activity #2: How to Conduct the Experiments 1. Mass: Use a Digital scale & record weight (grams) 2. Sink or Float: Gently Drop entire lemon in a large measuring cup filled with enough water to fully submerge the lemon. Observe if the lemon sinks or floats. 3. Volume: Place the lemon in a large measuring cup and add enough water to cover up the lemon. Record the water level volume. Remove the lemon and measure the new, lower water level. Calculate the difference in water levels to determine the volume of the lemon. 4. Yield: Adult cuts lemon in half, manually extracts juice into a small measuring cup, and measures amount of juice with measuring spoon 5. 5 Senses: Adult cuts lemon rind into pieces and gives each child their own piece to investigate see, hear, taste, touch, smell. 6 apics.org/stem

7 Lemon Science Experiments: Hypothesis (what do we think will happen?) STUDENT PACKET Let s guess at what we think will happen: This is called a hypothesis 1. How much will the lemon weigh? 2. Will the lemon sink or float in water? 3. Lemon volume: How much space does our lemon take up? (Show measuring cups as visual aids for guess: ¼ cup, ½ cup, ¾ cup, 1 cup) 4. Lemon Yield: Will the amount of lemon juice be more, less, or equal to the size of the lemon? 5. Lemons: What do we think we ll observe with our 5 Senses? See Hear Taste Touch Smell 7 apics.org/stem

8 Lemon Experiments & Results STUDENT PACKET 1. Mass of the lemon: grams 2. Did the lemon Sink or Float in water? 3. Lemon Volume: How much space does our lemon take up? 4. Lemon Yield: How much juice did we squeeze from the lemon? 5. Lemon observations: 5 senses See Hear Taste Touch Smell 6. Ways we can recycle/reuse lemons: 8 apics.org/stem
