Today we had fun learning about density.  We noticed that our pumpkin candy was more dense than our popcorn.  

We also made up some sugar/water solutions with different amounts of sugar in each solution.  

We had to work very carefully to drip each of the solutions into the standing test tube. 

The solutions that had less sugar were able to float on top of the solutions with more sugar.  This showed us that the water with more sugar was more dense.  

We also used the Scientific Method to predict, ask questions, and analyze results.  The children came up with a lot of questions about the sugar solutions and we tried to use experiments to answer those questions.


Thank you for being on time to pick up your children (3:50 pm). You can pick them up in my room, #63, each week.
We are looking forward to our next lesson!
