Science experiments

We have been doing lots of science at school. Today we looked at chemical reactions. I decided that making lemonade would show how an acid and base react and make the lemonade fizzy. We have also made bread (more CO2) and butter - liquid to solid... Kids love doing science that produces something they can eat!

Your classes are so interesting.

[Brigette]

Love this

[julia]

Sounds like a fun lesson..

[Maggiemae]

Both sound so good to understand. But I don't - how do you get that delicious lemon drink fizzy?

[Beryl Lloyd]

Wonderful Diane , making the science of everyday things so interesting - the little ones will remember this for ever!

[Dianne]

@maggiemae a bit of baking soda does the trick.

[Joan Robillard]

And I bet they learn more

Physics is fun
But Chemistry goes pop!
We need more scientists, keep inspiring our young folk.

@dide Thank you for that, I was racking my brain wondering where the basic component in lemonade came from.

[Brian]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Kudos to you for educating youngsters in a way that they will remember the tastes produced by chemical reactions. fav

Sounds like a wonderful lesson. Yes, my favourite quote from a little girl in year 1 was 'I'm doing science and I love it!

What an interesting way to teach the siences, start them young and keep them interested, well done Dianne:)

[Dawn]

Awesome day for your pupils

[Phil Howcroft]

can I be a pupil at your school Diane :)

[Issi Bannerman]

Oh, nice. Great class!

Any science supported by an experiment is more interesting than just a story.
