Science - Rubber Egg

Today we started a science experiment. We are going to turn a regular chicken egg into a rubber egg. We placed one egg in a glass of water (h2o) and one egg in vinegar.
 Nothing seemed to happen to the egg in water, but the egg in vinegar looked like this within seconds.
Then after about an hour, this is what we saw.

This is a close up.
 We are hypothesizing, observing, and predicting as we record the changes of our experiment.

Bonus! Bonus!
We are also reviewing many of our math concepts that we have learned through out the year. We are actually able to do some double digit multiplication, even our second graders! See if they can work this problem for you. 34 X 4 = ?
Have them bring it to me with your signiture and it will make my day!

I am so impressed with each students growth and understanding. I just love math.....and science.....and reading.....and oh my, you should hear some of our writing projects. Maybe we can upload some of them for you soon. Would you like that?
