Science fun!

Today we were discussing scientific method. The question was raised again - was Oobleck a solid or a liquid? It can't be classified as either as it is a strange and special substance called a Non-Newtonian fluid. We also looked at a fun website called Brainpop and we have a free 5 day trial to look around - username and password both room13uhps. Have fun!

Back to the Scientific method. When we do an experiment we will always follow this way:

Ask a question - what do I want to discover?
Make a hypothesis - I think... use information/research to help you.
Method - what steps will I take?
Results - what happened?
Conclusion - What do the results mean?
Draw a picture.

Welcome to the world of wonderings and discoveries.
