I have completed one exercise using 10 pennies and mass. I am looking for some brainstorm ideas which can be done from home with items around the souse. Any ideas/assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I am to assume that you have to do several simple experiments using household items and use the scientific method to conduct them? In that case, I shall assume that you are of a lower grade level.

Try this: come up with several statements about objects around your house--ex: this brand is better at this than this, if I do this then this will turn out better--and prove them. Take two glass-cleaning brands and see which can clean more with one swipe. Take two paper towel brands and see which can absorb more water. At what temperature will sugar dissolve the quickest in water? That sort of thing.

I hope this helped.
