BUBBLING UP!

We did an experiment called Bubbling Up! We put baking soda into the bottle and then vinegar. Then we put the cork into the bottle and stuck the straw into the water. It made lots of bubbles. It was fun. - Stanley

The baking soda and vinegar bubbled alot. It was over flowing and it was cool. There was bubbles of carbon dioxide gas coming out of the straw. - Logan F.

We put water into a glass and red food colouring. The bubbles were coming down into the cup. - Cadance

I saw the bubbles in the cup. It didn't work right away. The fourth time it finally worked. - Autumn

Our Trip To The Morris Museum

At the museum I saw an old oven, babies and trucks. It was great! - Riley

I learned that in the olden days it must have been a hard life. I saw an old bathtub, the oven, the iron, and a red gasoline tank.  I liked the cookies. - Avery

I saw old guns, skates, the gasoline mask and I like the medals. I learned that the bathtub was made out of metal. There were no computers. - Logan M.

The shoes were under the bed. I saw old coins, and an old scale. We sat in old school desks. I liked going to the museum. - Natasha
