Yesterday I did a sink or float experiment in Owens class.
We used a large plastic container that we filled half way with water to test
our items. We made a large chart with two columns, Sink and Float, the children
each had stickers with their numbers on them to place in whatever column they
thought was correct. We used about 15 different items such as; diet soda, regular
soda, egg, plastic egg, crayon, paper clip, apple, ball, nuts, straw, spoon and
raisins. Owen did really well on his predications; he was right on all but two
items. The kids seemed to really enjoy it. We actually had a few first and
second graders at the beginning. After the science experiment we stayed outside
and made name tags with a variety of beans.
