Grade K ages 4-6: Students will be introduced to density and
what makes an object sink or float (or flink, which is neither float or
sink).
Featured:
Students will test out different objects to see what will
sink or float. We will also use raisins and carbonated soda to create a reaction that allows the raisins to sink then float and then sink again. This will be followed by an egg experiment using salt that will allow the egg to neither sink nor float.
Details:
- Program is available for Garde K ages 4-6
- This program is available by appointment only
