We really enjoyed Science week in our class!
Science Experiments π§ͺWe got a balloon to blow up using a bottle, some water and an Effervescent tablet. We loved seeing the reaction from the tablet and the water and seeing the release of gas which blew up the balloon! πWe made a lava lamp by filling a glass with oil and water mixed with food colouring then we took turns dropping in pieces of an effervescent tablet and watched in aw as the tablet reacted with the water again and caused bubbles of lava up through the oil! π«§We placed butter beans into a glass of water and they sank to the bottom then we dropped in some effervescent tablet and the bubbles released caused the beans to dance up and down in the water like dancing ghosts! π« We did the walking water experiment to see how capillary action works! βοΈ
