Hello!
What a great week we had!
As I mentioned in our last post, we started learning more about science and what scientists do. We talked about asking questions and doing experiments. One of the books we read asked the question, does salt melt ice? Well, we decided to complete an experiment in order to answer the question, or draw our conclusion. Here's what we did!
We used two cups and put an ice cube into each cup. Our control cup only had the ice cube. The other cup had the ice cube and 1 teaspoon of salt.
While we observed the experiment we noticed that both cubes melted, but the cube with salt melted quicker.
We wrote about our experiment and made the conclusion that salt melts ice.
It was fun to be a scientist and we are looking forward to next week when we become engineers!
