SMALL BUILDERS
Materials: Your towel roll book is 4 parts. And I asked: Are we going to live all these books? How many towel rolls do we use for this? one? 3? 2nd? or 4?
what do you think?
We placed a book on a towel roll. But he could not last long and fell over.
We placed a book on two towel rolls. It held on for a while but was overthrown again.
We placed the books on three towel rolls. It held on for a while but the books shook.
Finally
We put all the books in four towel rolls.
Our structure is now solid
You can watch it from the link below. have a good time.

DOES THE EGG FLOAT?
Necessary materials for the experiment:
2 eggs
2 containers deep and large enough to accommodate eggs
That
Salt
Tea spoon
When you put the egg in water, it will sink. So how do you make the egg float in the water?
1- Fill both bowls with water.
2- Put salt in one of the bowls. Stir to completely dissolve the salt.
3-Drop the eggs into the bowls one by one
4- Observe what happens. In which container does the egg sink
in which bowl does he swim?
how that happens?
Salt water is denser than pure water. If we get enough salt solubility in water, its density will be higher than that of the egg. So when we put the egg in salt water, it will not sink.
NON-MIXED LIQUIDS
Purpose of the Experiment: To realize the properties of liquids with different densities and do not mix
Ingredients: Water, olive oil, pomegranate syrup, liquid soap
HOW SWANS SWİM
Have you noticed the feathers of swans swimming in lakes?Do you think swans feathers get wet?Why is that? we tought with my students.We could best see this with an experiment .
Materials; cotton , olive oil ,glasses
at the end of the experiment
Thanks to the fat layer on the feathers of swans,we noticed that the feathers of swans do not get wet and make swimming easier.
REINBOW EXPERIMENT
MATERIALS;
Hot water, plant, round color chocolate
We put colored chocolates on the plate.We slowly pour hot water into the plate.The result ;colorful rainbow.
İn this experiment,we found that hot water softens color faster.
NON – POPPING BALLOON
Materials:Two balloon,water,candle
Do you want to see a balloon that won’t pop.?Let’s start the experiment.
1)First let’s inflate the balloon and hold it to the burning candle.The bubble bursts.
2)Thenput water in the balloon and hold the balloon on the emitting candle.
The balloon does not burst.So how did then hoppen?
The hollow balloon bursts faster .The balloon containing water bursts later because the heat first heats the watr and then the balloon bursts.
LOST AİR
Materials:Glass ,candle,plate,colored paint
Dark candle in the middle of the plate.Add enough colored water that does not exceed the candle.Then cover the candle with the glass.Observe…. After a short while ,as there is not enough oxygen left to burn the candle ,the candle goes out and the water rises.A very interesting and intriguing experiment.
BATTLE OR FLOATING
Experimented to see what floats in water.We put materials rom nature and classroom toys into the water one by one.Which objects sunk, which objects floated.We observed that heavy objects sink and light object float.At the end of the experiment, we made our study experiment evaluation.
Black papper and soap experiment
We did a very good experiment with my students ,where we could explain the importance of cleaning and how we should be protected from germs.
We put water in a bowl and poured pepper on it.I told my students that black pepper represents microbes.We smeared liquid soap on the tip of our fingers, touched it inside our bowl , and watched how microbes escaped from the soap.
COLOR EXPERİMENT
materials:
water
glass
paint
napkin
We put water in galsses for each child.The children mixed the water in the painting glass.We placed the napkins into two glasses with their ends next to each other.We observed that the water was moving.we could see the water moving trough colors
