Science in Room 10

On Friday afternoon, Room 10 made a huge scientific discovery! Last week they carefully placed an egg in a cup of vinegar and let science take its course. As soon as the egg was dropped in the vinegar, hundreds of tiny bubbles began to appear. They found out that these bubbles are actually a gas called carbon dioxide, which is the same gas found in fizzy drinks.They left the egg for a week and  made predictions of what might happen. The boys and girls couldn’t believe their eyes on Friday when they took the egg out of the cup of vinegar, the egg shell had completely disappeared!! It left behind a delicate layer of skin, called a membrane, allowing you to see into the egg! Everyone was so excited by this amazing discovery, and couldn’t wait to share their learning with the rest of the school!
