2nd Year-Rules and Safety!

To start off science right for our second year, 
we talked about the importance of science rules and lab safety. 
Here are a few rules we discussed.

We practiced these rules as we did an experiment with invisible ink!
If you want to make invisible ink at home, here are the directions!

Mix 1 T. baking soda 
with 1/2 cup water
Use a q-tip or paint brush  dipped in the liquid to write a secret message. 
Let dry completely.

Then mix 1 tsp. turmeric 
with 1/2 cup rubbing alcohol.
Use a second q-tip or paint brush to brush over the secret message. 
Watch as the letters appear!





SUU Animal Ambassadors!

We ended our first year of the hands-on science lab with a bang! 
We were so lucky so have the SUU Animal Ambassadors come to science in April! They taught us about lots of different animals! We saw and touched snakes, lizards, tortoises, tarantulas, and cockroaches!
