Science Club at Noadswood

We have just returned from an absolutely fantastic Science Club session at Noadswood. Miss Guppy, and her six wonderful Science Leaders, took us through five hands-on experiments. We thoroughly enjoyed being able to take part in so many activities in such a short time!

Some of us are going home to try these experiments out in our kitchens! However, just so I don't get in trouble, please ask an adult first! Don't forget to let me know what you discover!

Ideas for you to investigate following on from today:

1. Does semi-skimmed or skimmed milk work as well in the milk experiment? Why do you think this is?

2. Do M and Ms or Smarties work in the same way as skittles when placed in a shallow bowl of water?

3. Place some celery or white carnations in water with food colouring. At Noadswood, we used blue. Do other food colourings travel up the xylem too?

Please let me know!
I look forward to seeing you next week where we will be investigating what makes you YOU!!!
