What about this metal spoon?
What do you think?
It sinks!
# Let's explore, let's find out
# What floating and sinking's all about
# Come and join me, let's find out
# Will it sink or float?
# Let's try something heavy
# What about a big old key?
# Will it float like the leaf?
# Let's see
# Will it sink or float? #
It sinks.

Sink, sink, sink.
Float, float, float.
# Floating along like a boat
# Some materials sink down, down, down
# When others just stay on the top floating around
# So what's it all about?
# What makes things sink or float?
# Armbands, rubber ring, baby swimming chair
# Blow them up with air
# Paddling pool, beach ball, little blow-up boat
# Metal key, money, a hook for your coat
# If it weighs the same or less than water pushing up
# We call the object buoyant, it stays up, up, up
# If it's buoyant, it'll float on by
# But if it's not, it'll sink
# Bye-bye!
# We've explored, we've found out
# What floating and sinking's all about
# Come on, let's all shout out
# We know what sinks and floats
# Sinking and floating
# We know what it's about
# And why don't you try it out? #
