Science Experiment - Measuring Mass

Wow! How many markers can they fit into the scale?

Looks like one side is heavier. Do you agree, Hudson?

Can Ayden really fit the kleenex box onto the scale?!?

Look how closely Rakshi is observing:)

Prudhvi & Nolan B. watch closely as Carter adds something to the scale.

Jacob, Caiti, Alexa & Marley make learning look fun!

Madi waits patiently to discover which side is heavier.

Science Experiment with Liquids

The first graders were asked to compare the liquid amounts in each vase. They noticed that all four vases were different shapes and sizes and that the liquids were different colors. Then, each student predicted which vase held the most liquid and which vase held the least liquid. In the end, we discovered that each vase held the exact same amount of liquid. This is because: liquids take on the shape of the container that they are inside.
