Week 12 blog
This week we did different experiments with different objects like clay, crayons, marbles, etc. My favorite experiment we did was the sink or float experiment. I found it interesting that certain things sunk when they were whole and floated when they were split in half an example being the crayon. I would for sure do this experiment in my future classroom because it leads to students performing further investigations about why certain things sink or float. A question I have is "What is the best way to explain to a student why an object sinks or why an object floats?"
Hey Monet! My favorite experiment was also the sink or float experiment. I have done this in some of my past science classes and I think it is a great way for students to understand science practices.
ReplyDeleteHi Monet, I also found it interesting to find out if certain objects sank or floated, because some of them surprised me- like tinfoil.
