7. So far this is what I think.......
Light things float and heavy
things sink.........
8. I carried out a experiment to try to find out more about why things
float and sink.I tested some pieces of wood.I thought the big piece of
wood would sink because it looked heavy,but it didn’t, it floated

12. NOW I KNOW THAT DENSITY
AFFECTS FLOATING AND SINKING.
THINGS THAT ARE LESS DENSE
THEN WATER FLOAT.
AND THOSE WHICH ARE MORE
DENSE THAN WATER SINK.
13. I investigated what happens when you
put a ballon in the water
The balloon is floating on top of the I pushed the ballon some of the water was pushed
water. into the water out of the way thats displaced
Water
level!!!
14. What I know now is that not all heavy things
sink and not all light things float.
Now I know density affects floating and sinking
