Have you ever used a mini water rocket?

Today we got out a science kit. We wrote a hypothesis on what would happen. My hypothesis  on what will happen when the rocket launches: I think the rocket will fly 40-50 feet high.My hypothesis was correct. I enjoyed watching the bottle fly.Have you ever used an aquapod ?

Here is my explanation

How an aquapod works.

Have you ever used an aquapod ?

Throughout this piece of writing I will tell you how one works.

An aqua pod is an orange platform used to launch a  water rocket.

First you fill a large empty soft drink bottle ⅓ of the way up.

Secondly you put the bottle on the ground then attach the upside down pod to the valve where the rubber seal  holds the bottle in place.

Next you plug the pump into the valve on  the aqua pod .then you 

pump 8-12 times  this creates air pressure.

Finally you pull the string nice and tight then the launch release pulls back and the pressure pushes the bottle up and the water comes down.

Oil and water science experiment

This week we learnt how to conduct an experiment. For our DLO we  had to split the group in half to have enough space on the slide then  created a slideshow about the materials used for the experiment , our hypothesis and methods. Have you ever done an oil and water experiment? Here are the links to or sources  video 1    video 2

ch ch changes

 for the last 4 weeks my class has been learning about chemical and physical changes

today we had to make change slides after making sherbet Theo Molly Alexis and I  made the sherbet together so it was only right t work together on the slide I hope you like it
