Grade 6 are learning about combustion in Science class.
They are using goggles because they need to use fire in this unit.
They practiced how to use matches because it could be very dangerous if they made a mistake.
They learned how the smoke moves, and learns what a fire needs to keep burning.
To watch the air moving they used incense.
^How the fire looked when it is on the candle.
^Observing how the fire looks.
We interviewed a Grade 6 student about it:
Q) Was it fun?
A) It was really fun!
Q) What was the most interesting thing?
A) Using the jar and seeing how the smoke moves, and seeing what the fire needed to keep burning.
They really enjoyed it!
We think that learning this unit is a great experience.
However it is also dangerous if you are not careful so I thought that to learn this interesting work we must beware that it is dangerous.
