Experimenting

I learnt about experimenting. Experiments are used to find information or data.

First, we chose a certain meterial that we are going to experiment on. The meterial we chose was sand

Next, we measured 100ml of water into a beaker and added 5 drops of food colouring to it.

Then, we measured 50 grams of sand on a scale. We first had to make sure that the container weighed 0 grams so we can get the exact mesurment when we measure the sand.

After, we measured the sand we put it in a tote tray and poured the water into it. We used a tote tray just in case the water spills.

Lastly, we pourded the water out of the container and into a measuring cylider. Then we measured how much water was not obsorbed and recorded it on a sheet.

I found this activity fun because I learnt how to experiment and how to measure properly.
