Future Scientists!

The Bears earned their Super Science belt loops by tackling several STEM experiments.

HAIR-RAISING and WALL CLIMBING TRICKS


We learned how static electricity works and used it to make our hair stand on end, balloons stick to the ball and even move an aluminum can without even touching it.

 COLOR EXPLOSIONS in MILK


We made crazy color designs in milk by putting a small amount of soap in and watching it dance with the fat molecules in the milk. 

 SUGAR IS SO HEAVY!!  



We learned about how the amount of sugar in juices makes them more dense.  The most dense juices sink to the bottom.  We were able to stack up 3 different juices in our cylinder with colored water on top. 


 GETTING A CLOSER LOOK!!  



We observed various plants and animals (dead) that we found during our hike under our microscope.

Some highlights:
