Discovery Science Museum2


Last week the Discovery Science Museum visited Steward School and presented a matter workshop to the third grade. The students loved  all of the hands-on activities and remembered many facts they learned during our study of matter!
First, we had to figure out how to melt an ice cube. The students used their hands or breath to warm up the ice cube.








Adding heat or taking away heat changes the state of water.

We also observed some cool experiments with liquid nitrogen and dry ice.
Rubber bands freeze in liquid nitrogen!

Ask your child how Ms. Stella used a banana as a hammer and shrunk medal.
  
If students visit http://tinyurl.com/TSWactivity with their parents they can find some at-home science activities. If you complete the five question survey you will receive a FREE admission pass for the Discovery Science Museum.
