Description

Class Experience

NOTE: This is a very popular class during the holiday season but can be done year round using peppermint candies OR candy canes in order to make this class accessible year round! 

Introductions: We will begin by introducing ourselves to our fellow classmates.

Discussion: What do you think is going to happen to the peppermint candies when we place them in the hot water? What about the oil? The cold water? The vinegar? What do you think the word dissolve means? Which container do you think...

Learners will learn new vocabulary such as the word dissolve.
Learners will gain a better understanding on how to conduct experiments.
Learners will gain a better understanding on how to make scientific observations.

Required Materials:
4 clear containers (any clear container will do as long as you can see from the side)
Peppermint candies OR candy canes
Cooking oil
White distilled vinegar 
Hot water
Cold water
Optional bonus liquid of their choosing for 5th container

30 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

Parents will need to assist their learners in pouring the hot water into the container. This water will need to be hot in order for the experiment to work properly.
