Drill a hole in the first board the diameter of the screw and screw into the second board. This will pull the two boards together. If you screw through both boards without the hole the first one will lift slightly when the screw goes through so the boards will not be held tight together.

How does a screw help you do work?
Very often screws are thought of as the answer to all common connections, however, screws have very little shear strength as compared to nails. screws should be typically used to join two media, either like or not. To get the best connection using screws, holes should be drilled in both peices, for instance, if you are securing two pieces of wood together it is best to have a clearance hole very slightly larger than the threads but smaller than the head in the outer piece, where as the inner pilot hole should be drilled the same size as the shaft of the screw or smaller in softer wood. this allows the threads to grab only the inner material and the head of the screws holds the outer material. If the threads grab both materials you will not get as a secure bond of both pieces.

How could two pieces of wood of different sizes have the same density?
You are confusing density with weight. Two pieces of wood of the same density but different sizes have different weights. Density, you could say, is like hardness. If you take a 6 foot piece of wood, and cut 2 feet from it, the two pieces of wood are definitely different weights but the same hardness. Since they came from the same original piece of wood, they almost have to be the same density. There are some types of wood that have such high density that they will not float on water.
