Our students have really enjoyed conducting science experiments during this unit. In our next unit our focus will not be on science but we would like to encourage students to keep up their enthusiasm and conduct experiments of their choice at home. Below are links to great resources with ideas for simple experiments that the whole family can enjoy. Please try to do at least one experiment with your children. Students can bring in pictures of them completing the experiment for show and tell!
Science Projects for Preschoolers
For our last experiment, students tested the affects of acid pollution on sea shells. We filled one cup with water and the other with vinegar. Next, we chose two similar looking seashells and placed one seashell in each cup. Students then observed the seashells throughout the day and recorded their findings. Here are some pictures of our investigation.
Nova really enjoyed all of the science experiments in class, as well as watching Science Bob videos online. We learned how to make green slime and also that dry ice makes metals scream. Thank you for the great links!
Noga I think science is so much fun too! I am glad you were able to watch some of the science videos at home!
Joel did an experiment at home with dried yeast. I will send you the photos Miss Doreenda.
He was amazed at how you had to feed it, for it to wake up and come alive.
