Science Week Day 4 and Day 5 Fifth class
15th Nov 2019
We learned how insects can walk on water by doing the pepper and soap experiment . We learned a new word called surface tension
We learned that water can travel through a paper towel without spilling. How amazing 😉 This is known as capillary action.
We also got to see a chemical reaction. This proved very exciting where we added bread soda to vinegar. As a result carbon dioxide was released causing the balloon 🎈 to fill with the gas.
Thanks very much 5th for a great science week .
