Introduction: We will begin class by sharing our favorite winter or holiday traditions and foods. Activity 1: Candy Cane Craft Learners will use the candy cane template sheet that will be posted in the classroom, construction paper, scissors, and glue to create their own candy cane art with a unique stripe pattern. Activity 2: Dissolving Candy Cane Experiment Learners will test how quickly the stripes of their candy cane dissolve in different temperatures of water. Activity 3: Fizzing Candy Canes Learners observe the characteristics of a chemical reaction while they use baking soda and vinegar to dissolve their candy canes. Each science experiment will include the opportunity for students to make predictions, share observations, and draw conclusions based on the data they and their classmates collect. The teacher will ask guiding questions to prompt discussion and scientific thinking. Class will conclude with a brainstorm of other experiments that could be done on their own after class!
Learning Goals
Students will follow the steps of the scientific method as they complete the experiments.

Parental Guidance
Parental guidance will be needed during the use of scissors, as well as during the science experiment portion of class.
