Year 1P's Science Experiments

Have a look at the exciting science experiments 1P have been doing in class. They have been investigating sound and also how different materials react with each other to make a great erupting volcano!


Our first experiment we created telephones with plastic cups and string. The children realised that the string had to be pulled tight in order for them to work.


Our second experiment was building a volcano. The children came up with the results that the baking soda and the vinegar had a reaction. When vinegar was poured into the volcano the baking soda made the vinegar rise and bubble. The children said it looked like a fizzy drink as it had red food colouring in it. The conclusion they came up with was that the more vinegar we poured the greater the volcano erupted.

  1. I love your science experiments, 1P. My favourite is the volcano experiment - the vinegar and baking soda look just like lava flowing out of the volcano! Mrs Sorbello
