Day 2 dawns, we observe our experiment AND…

we saw less froth than Day 1.

We also observed:

* the egg was cracking

* a light brown colour on the egg

* there was a sort of skin on top

* there were fewer bubbles

Some predictions for Day 3 are:

cracked egg

even less froth

colour change to lighter for the egg

egg shell will start to split a lot

More Science with The Funsters

Today the Funsters started conducting an experiment  to make carbon dioxide using an egg and vinegar.

We placed a hard boiled egg into a clear glass, then covered the egg with white vinegar.

We then observed bubbles forming on the outside of the egg straight away. These bubbles ascended to the surface very rapidly.

Stay tuned to find out what happens tomorrow!



Game Making

S3K made up outdoor games for PE in groups of 5 or 6 students. The idea of this was for us to create a fun game that was:

safe

short – no more than 4 minutes

simple – everyone can play

We are going to trial our games and when they are ‘playable’, write them up as procedures and publish them on this: Our Blog.

Stay Tuned!

Last week when the CSIRO visited our school, we watched an experiment that showed how objects can float in salt water. We also learned that you can SIT in the Dead Sea and read a book, because the water is so salty there. If you could visit the Dead Sea to read a book, what book would you choose?
