$EVWUDFW This paper intends to suggest
strategies for planning, development and
implementation of simple activities, related
to “density”, in the classroom, in an Inquiry
Based
Science
Education
(IBSE)
perspective, i.e. science education based on
research/inquiry/experimentation. In this
sense, we begin by contextualizing the
curricular context on science teaching in preschool and primary school, and presenting
the theoretical context related to the
teaching of science based in IBSE. The
choice of the suggested activities was based
on a set of criteria including their inclusion in
preschool and primary school national
curriculums, as well as the possibility that it
can be addressed with varying degrees of
depth, depending on the grade and level of
cognitive development of students. The
activities are proposed to explore the issue
of density that is a subject commonly
address in classroom from pre-school to
primary school, and was developed to be
applied in class with students of those
school levels.
