We created a special mixture using bicarb soda, vinegar and frozen cornflour. This experiment sparked lots of curiosity that kept our busy learners engaged for over an hour!

The children worked hard on their fine motor skills by carefully squeezing pipettes to drop vinegar onto the mixture, excitedly observing as the chemicals reacted together. They also practiced hand eye coordination by using small hammers to break apart the gooey, frozen cornflour ice, observing as it turned from a solid to a gooey liquid mixture. It was wonderful to watch the children collaborate as they shared materials and proudly communicated their discoveries with their peers and educators!

Keep an eye out for more science fun happening across Waratah 1 this week!
