This is our favourite group experiment so far. You might like to try it with your family at home...

It's a Gas Gas Gas!

You will need:

3. Measure out 2 tsp of baking soda and pour into the balloon.

4. Twist the balloon closed then stretch the end over the top of the bottle

Observations

Does anything happen?

 Get ready with the vinegar.

 Get set with the baking soda. 

Go!

Our 2nd experiment was a "Fizz Test."

This is the equipment we used.

Each group had their own testing sheet. We placed 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda in each milk bottle lid.

Then we added different liquids to each lid so they matched the labels.

Here is Jordyn working out if milk will make the baking soda fizz.

Next Annabelle experimented with the lemon juice. Wow..it really fizzed!

Penny's job was to add the vinegar. She giggled when she saw the reaction!

Thomas has became very good at sharing what he sees happening!

Charlotte was in charge of adding the water to the baking soda. She discovered that nothing really happened!

Each group talked about their findings. We are getting really good at being 'Super Scientists.'
