Last week we started an experiment to see if we could bounce an egg.
We put one egg in a glass of vinegar and one egg in a glass of water.
We had to wait 7 days before we could test if the egg would bounce.
We waited and watched. In only a few hours we had already noticed that our egg in vinegar looked different. It was bigger and had lots of tiny bubbles around the shell.
On the 7th day we took the egg out of the water. It still looked and felt the same. We took the egg out of the vinegar. It looked bigger and felt very different! It didn't have a hard shell any more, but a soft outside that felt like rubber.
Only Hunter didn't think our egg would bounce! Was he right?
Yes he was. It went splat!
It was also a fantastic sunny day for flying our wind socks outside this afternoon!
Discovery is such fun. Keep watching that extra egg at the back of the room! Mrs. R.
