We conducted an experiment to see first hand how matter changes from one state to another. We placed vinegar in a film canister and added an Alka-Seltzer tablet and placed the lid back on. Can you guess what happened next? You're right! The lid flew off because of the gas that was created inside the canister. It was pretty exciting and we heard a few screams since I didn't tell them what was going to happen. It's all about discovery, safely, of course!
This is Studio 214, our fourth grade classroom, where I will post cool websites, provide classroom information on upcoming events, and post pics of what we are learning in our class!
