The Hoot Owls have been learning about science and what it means to be a scientist. The class has talked about parts of the scientific method including making hypotheses, doing experiments, collecting data and comparing data, as well as using their senses to learn about the world around them.
The Hoot Owls explored the concept of liquid and solid by making and playing with oobleck (water and cornstarch). The students were surprised to see the liquid thicken and solidify when force was applied to it.
Next, the class experimented with vinegar and baking soda. They were excited to see the reaction the vinegar made in the baking soda!
Finally, the Hoot Owls counted how many drops of water would fit on a penny, nickel and quarter.
