Science Week

This week we have been celebrating National Science Week.  Yesterday we all became Scientists for the afternoon.  We visited different classes in the school to do some investigating and experimenting.


I wonder if you have told your families about the science activities you participated in?


This morning our buddy class A2, came over to help us make Bubbling Wizard's Brew!  What excitement!  Our buddies helped us follow the instructions and make our magical mixtures.  Check out our slide show to see how much fun we had exploring, investigating and experimenting with science!


    


We discovered that.... 

  • When the vinegar and the baking soda mix together they 'react' with each other and change.  
  • The mixture made lots of tiny bubbles of gas.  The bubbles frothed up the washing-up liquid.  
  • The mixture made lots of magical frothy foam pour out of the top of the jar just like a wizards brew!

You can make one at home too!

  1. What a fantastic experiment! We love this experiment too - we like putting vinegar and baking soda in a bottle and putting a balloon on top. Keep up the good work.

  3. Well done E6 - that looks like fun! We love to mix together all sorts of things from the cupboard to make different things at home. Our favorite things to mix are butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla, bananas and flour - ask Lucy what that makes when you mix it all together like a science experiment! Keep up the good work! Lucy's Dad.
