To celebrate their hard work, students gathered for a themed luncheon, where they proudly shared their projects and discussed their reading.

Science Experiment Goes Green on St. Patrick’s Day

Samantha Smith’s first grade class at Tooker Avenue Elementary School combined science lessons with St. Patrick’s Day fun. thumbnail265034

Samantha Smith’s first grade class at Tooker Avenue Elementary School combined science lessons with St. Patrick’s Day fun on March 17. The students started the lesson with a scavenger hunt to find clues around the classroom left by the leprechaun. The final clue led them to a green-themed science experiment. 

Using green-colored baking soda and vinegar, students predicted what would happen when the two materials mixed together. Using their recording sheet, they wrote a hypothesis, the materials used, the procedure, along with results and observations. After mixing the vinegar and baking soda, the reaction also revealed a gold coin at the bottom of the experiment left by the leprechaun.
