Owls - MarvelLous Melting Moments

Fun Science Day this week in Owls found us exploring and experimenting with Changes of State - freezing & melting.

We made vanilla ice cream - changing liquids into solids. Really enjoyed getting tastily messy by hand painting with melted chocolate. In our Sweet Shop Melt experiment we used our predicting and decision making skills to watch and record how a range of sweetshop favourites melted over a heat source. In our Skittle Magic experiment we  dissolved  the colour from Skittles and drew the resulting pattern.

 We waited... and waited

 Recorded our results...
