I teach 7th grade in an urban area - most don't fish or boat, although they could understand the concept.

I am working on making my students more aware of real-life applications and why they should be learning this information. I am stuck on mass, volume, and density. Any thoughts and/or activities? I'm stumped on why anyone should care...oops? haha
