Chemistry Wrap Up

We wrapped up our chemistry unit by making “elephant toothpaste”. Our scientists made predictions, recorded observations, and met in small groups to discuss the chemistry behind the elephant toothpaste. Our budding scientists collected their chemistry research notes in a folder and designed covers. It’s been fun to see the growth in our students’ scientific vocabulary and note-taking stamina throughout the course of this unit! Otter scientists learned a great deal about the states of matter and about chemical reactions too.
