Stephy, our Science Ambassador, worked with a small group of children to investigate water.
They carried out an experiment.
First we put a pencil into a beaker of water.
Then we looked at the pencil and we saw that the pencil looked like it was broken or bent!
Stephy helped us to discuss why this happened. It was called refraction. It is when the light goes through the glass and the water and they both have different density.
Here are some photographs of our experiment.
Hi, my name is Stephy Philip and I’m a sixth year pupil at Hazlehead Academy. I’m pleased to be a S6 Science Ambassador for Fernielea Primary School this year.
My aim is to help widen pupil’s knowledge of chemistry and how it is related to the world around them.
In order to achieve this aim I will be preparing different kinds of chemistry related experiments for them to be involved in. I will also be giving the pupils an opportunity to ask me any questions about chemistry.
I thank Fernielea for giving me this opportunity and I’m looking forward to working with the school this year.
Stephy
