Science

This week we finished up our study of pumpkins. We did a science experiment with sinking and floating! First we made predictions about whether apples and pumpkins would sink or float. Then we observed what happened and made further predictions about testing bigger pumpkins. After these experiments, the kids turned and talked about what might be making apples and pumpkins both float but to different degrees. We then tested a water bottle with just air inside and a water bottle filled with water.
Take a look at our Venn diagram comparing apples and pumpkins.
