To continue our study of the scientific method we conducted an experiment.
The QUESTION: What happens when you add candy corn to different solutions (water, salt water, baking soda and water, and vinegar)?
Then students came up with different ideas (HYPOTHESIS) on what might happen.
The second graders then tested out the candy corn in the different solutions and RECORDED DATA.
It was fun to see the students trying different things and having scientific conversations about what was happening. We had a class discussion to SUMMARIZE our findings.
We left the candy corn over lunch and came back to find it had disappeared!! (Dissolved).
It was a fun way to practice being scientists!
