Popcorn is a delicious snack to eat. It can also be a fun material to use in an experiment. In this class, learners will learn about the matter, mass, and density as they complete two experiments using popcorn kernels. How is the class structured? The class will start with an ice breaker game that allows learners to get comfortable in class while they wait for their peers. Next, we will do introductions and talk about matter, mass, and density. Then, we will complete the experiments and analyzing our findings. Experiment 1: Sink or float Popcorn Kernels (Density) Learners will explore two of the states of matter and the effects they have on each other. Experiment 2: Dancing Popcorn Learners will explore the chemical reactions that create dancing popcorn. At the end of class, we will review what we learned and analyze the results. Learners will need: Popcorn kernels (or raisins) 2 clear cups Water Vinegar Baking Soda Tablespoon A deep tray or cooking dish Print out of the class worksheet This class is an inclusive class. Learners of all abilities are welcome to join!
