Meet one of our resident scientists - Jacob


Jacob was given a really cool science book with lots of experiments in it from his Grandparents. He wanted to show the class an experiment. 


Tell your family what he did.


Here is his equipment. What did he need?


Here are the instructions that he typed out.


Here is the new science vocabulary that we have learned today. Tell your whanau (family) your new words. 


What did Jacob do first?


Why did he have 2 dishes?


We waited half an hour, and what had happened to the half of the potato that was sitting in the water and the salt?


Here are the results!


It was so interesting to see what had happened!




We decided to take the experiment further by adding more salt and water to one half, and just water to the other, and we are leaving it over the weekend. What do you predict will have happened after 48 hours?



Here is Jacob showing us the results. Tell your family what happened?
