In their study of buoyancy, the students in grades 3 and 4 were learning about how oil and water do not mix. In a real life application we had a look at the results of the Exxon Valdez and the BP Gulf of Mexico oil spills. (We used Google image photos and watched videos on YouTube.) With a bin of water, some oil (not crude oil), rocks, and popsicle sticks, the children tried to 'save' the plastic animals.
