The Learning Stars have been working on Science activities.
The first thing we did was do the Coke and Mentos Experiment.
Mrs Dyer asked us to think about why we wouldn’t eat a pack of Mentos and then drink coke.
We worked in groups and put our Mentos in the Diet Coke. We now know why you wouldn’t eat and drink just look at the Diet Coke eruption below.
Then we had to do some other experiments.
Our task was
1. Watch a Youtube Science video of some cool science experiments.
We had to watch the video carefully to find out what materials were used in the experiments.
2. We needed to record the steps we had to follow.
Then we had to look at the video again to make sure we had all the information we needed.
Then we got into it . . . collecting our resources and doing our experiments.
We made
- Green Goo
- Magic Milk Patterns
- Lava Lamps
