Chemistry

We learned that chemistry is when we take different products and put them together to make something new. Ms. Loggins did this to make the play dough last night. She mixed flour, salt, cream of tarter, water and oil to make play dough. This is chemistry! We got the chance to make snow this morning, and we were chemists! We mixed two boxes of corn starch and a can of shaving cream together and it made a super fun snow! 

This morning we worked in groups and observed the snow and each play dough: cinnamon, Galaxy (dark blue with sparkles), and white. We used our sense of sight to see what each looked like, our sense of smell to see what each felt like, and our sense of touch to see what each felt like. 

Snow! 

Cinnamon!

White!

Galaxy!

After observing, we wrote down our observations like scientists. We wrote about what our favorite thing was from today!

Science is so fun!
