We did manage to get in a few spots of learning despite all the chaos.
We did an experiment using the scientific method. And best of all, it involved candy hearts and chocolate kisses!
I got this idea and all the sheets for the activity from Primary Paradise's Packet Valentine's Day Candy Science Experiment. It was well worth the purchase and I recommend you checking it out!
Do valentine candies dissolve in hot or cold water?
Then the students made their hypothesis.
(They will melt in hot and freeze in cold.)
Here is a picture of the candy in cold water:
Here is a picture of the candy in hot water:
BrainpopJr. has a great video on the Scientific Method
If you are interested in making a poster for the steps of the scientific method, you can get that for free from an old post of mine. Just click on the picture below.
And y'all, I got the sweetest Valentine present -
You may not can tell from the picture, but the cellophane wrapper was missing.
and when I opened the lid, this is what I found:
PRICELESS!!!!
Happy Teaching!!!!!
