This week Year 1 were lucky enough to receive another visit from Katie at Science Buddies to help us celebrate Science Week. As this years theme is ‘Connections’ we carried out 3 very exciting and interesting experiments…
Katie started by showing us how to use pipettes by adding water drop by drop into a cup. We also put on our safety goggles and lab coats – safety first!
We then used our new skills and techniques to add vinegar to a very special powder. We were so shocked to see the powder started to change colour!
Once we had completed our first experiment, we started another using skittles and water. We used the skittles to create a circle on a plate and then poured water onto the skittles and watched the colours run to create a beautiful rainbow!🌈
For our finally experiment we added mentos into coke and watched the reaction. We couldn’t believe it was even taller than Katie when it sprayed! We had a lot of fun carrying out all of our experiments and thoroughly enjoyed being scientists for the day!
