This term every friday we and been doing inquiry. For our inquiry each teacher and been focusing on something different about science. Nic's group is learning about the moon, Troys group is learning about the weather and Elly's group is doing Seed-To-Table. I have been working with Troy and we got to choose what we wanted to focus on and I wanted to learn about snow and snowstorms. Then got to choose a experiment about our focus. My experiment was to make snow and then make a snow storm in a jar. To make the snow you will need shaving cream, baking soda and a bowl. First you spray some of the shaving cream into the the bowl then put some of the baking soda into the bowl and mix with your hands. Keep adding more of baking soda or shaving cream to make your snow. To make the snowstorm you will need water, baby oil, alka seltzer, white paint, a jar, a bowl and something to mix with. First fill the jar 3/4 of the way with baby oil, then in the bowl mix the water and white paint this will be the fake snow. Then add the water and paint mixture with the baby oil. Then add the alka seltzer and watch.
Here is us making the snowstorm and the snow.
Here are my slides.
Feedback/Feedforward: I think this experiment is really interesting but next time you could talk in the video -Eli
Evaluation: I think that we did a good job with our experiment but next time we could talk in the video.
Wow, a great use of time lapse to show you putting together your experiment. You have written an excellent piece of writing about how snow works too. You are combining all the workshop learning to create amazing learning. Excellent Sophie :)
