Science Week in 3rd and 4th Class

We had lots of fun participating in Science Week this year. We explored the importance of washing our hands with soap and water as we observed what happens to bread when touched by washed hands, sanitised hands and dirty hands. We watched diet coke erupt when we added mentos to it, we watched gummy bears grow when they were left in water overnight and we discovered what drinks do to our teeth by observing the egg shells in water, milk and coke. The highlight of our week was our lava lamps which taught us that oil and water do not mix. We turned off the lights and watched them glow in the dark!
