Chem Lab - North Yarmouth!

 Dear Families,

Chemists stayed busy this week with a variety of experiments and fun! Be sure to keep scrolling to learn about our week & see some pictures of scientists in action. 📷

Overview of the Week

  • Monday: we made lab coats to prepare us for a week of scientific endeavors. We also began a moldy bread experiment. Over the course of the week we observed how bread reacts and molds. We had a control group, a dry group, and a wet group. We also learned what chromatography and dabbled with color separation.
  • Tuesday: we learned about fog and condensation. We made clouds and rain in a jar. 
  • Wednesday: it was SLIME day!! We learned about molecules and how they interact. 
  • Thursday: we made solar ovens, and tried to cook an egg on them! We also enjoyed classic experiments such as elephant toothpaste and mentos & coke. 
  • Friday: we made lava lamps and enjoyed afternoon water balloons.
