On Friday, we had Discovery Day. This time we were all Scientists and we were asking some great questions. In Room 1 we were doing kitchen science experiments. We were mixing baking soda and vinegar and making gas. We found that the gas blew up a balloon that was attached to a beaker and it also made our ice blocks explode.
Mrs Heald is pouring vinegar on the iceblocks. It was great watching them explode. I wonder why that happened?
Then we put some tempera paint in a plastic bag, poured some vinegar into the bag and sealed it. Then we watched as the bag expanded and grew tighter and tighter. It was so exciting.
Hello all the little ones in room 1. I would like some of you to come and tell me why you think the ice blocks exploded. I'm sure you have lots of ideas now that you investigate just like scientists.
