Shadow drawing

Move your objects/animals closer to the sun. Do your shadows get bigger or smaller?

Make it freeze

*Check with an adult first*
 

What you will need:

  • ice cube tray 
  • different liquids (water, salt water, milk, chocolate sauce, honey, oil, vinegar, washing up liquid, etc)
  • freezer


How will you make this a fair test?

- same amount of liquid

 

How often will you check?

- every hour?

- every day?


Did they all freeze?

Why did some liquids not freeze? 
Why did they freeze at different times?

 

Try and record your results in a table and plot the results on a graph. Have fun! 😃
