Science enrichment

Today was our first day of science enrichment in first grade! Our kids start in our classroom and do an experiment and then go to another first grade classroom for a different experiment! 

We learned about different liquid densities in room 212! The kids started with an empty cup and then poured a mysterious green liquid into the cup. 

Then they had to predict what would happen if we poured the mysterious yellow liquid into the cup with the green liquid. 

They were amazed the that yellow liquid stayed on top of the green liquid! 

They drew their predictions and observations in their science journals...

The next part of our experiment was the brown liquid! They were passing it around carefully observing using their senses to figure out what was in that cup!

They had to predict what would happen when they poured the brown liquid into the cup...they did a great job making valid predictions that the brown liquid would sit on top of the yellow liquid! 

Aren't they just sooooo cute? 

Table 2 had fun trying to figure out that brown liquid...maybe because it was syrup!

Aidan is taking his observations very seriously! I totally tricked them :) The brown liquid sank to the bottom of the cup! We learned that some liquids can be heavy and some can be light!
