We've revamped it a bit. All 'national' trial events are available on the national website at: https://www.soinc.org/learn/trial-events Note that Density Lab will be trialed in multiple states this year, and likely will be a full event next year.

A middle school science book should be a good start. You might want to check out a chemistry and a physics book fro a library.
Also, Your science teacher should be able to point you to other sources.
Do not forget wikepedia.
As far a hands on, I doubt if any of that will include gasses. Too difficult to provide good equipment. Makes for great test questions.

Considering the vagueness of the rules, I believe that the best method is to do what the person above said. There are hundreds of books in the library or online for density, buoyancy, concentration, etc.
