Science and Maths Week 2021

The Reception Class were learning about reactions and mixtures this week. We poured oil, colour and glitter into water to make mood shakers and observe the process of mixing or separating. We discovered that although food colour dissolves in water, oil floats to the top!
We also observed the reaction of mento sweets in a bottle of coca cola. Try this at home and see what happens…

We used pipettes to drop vinegar onto bicarbonate of soda. Ariel said it made bubbles. Jordan said it made “popping sounds.”

Constance said she enjoyed making her mood shaker and likes it a lot!
