Volcano

 Aim: to make a volcano we created erupt using chemical reactions

Hypothesis: I think that the volcano with definitely erupt when we add the chemicals.

Equipment: Our Volcano, Baking soda, vinegar, food colouring, dish washing liquid 

Method: first we made and painted the volcano add chemicals to make the volcano erupt then clean up after 

• warm water
• dish washing liquid
• red or orange food colouring
• baking soda
• vinegar

1. Pour warm water into the volcano until it is 1/2 to 3/4 of the way full.
2. Add several drops of food colouring.
3. Add a squirt of detergent. This helps the ‘lava’ foam up and flow.
4. Add a couple of spoonfuls of baking soda.
5. When you are ready to start the eruption, pour vinegar into your volcano.
6. You can recharge the volcano with more baking soda and vinegar.

Note: If you don’t have vinegar, you can use another acidic liquid, like lemon juice or orange juice.

Home Economics

Muffin Make-Over 
On Thursday 24th of October in home economics we made a healthier version of the Texas chocolate chip muffins the ways that we made it healthier was by taking out the whole milk and changing it to low unsweetened milk we swapped the flour with whole grain and white flour instead of butter we used canola oil we added baking powder instead of baking soda and we reduced the amount of sugar and chocolate chips that we used by doing this we were able to make 6 Texas muffins or 9 medium sized or 24 smaller sized muffins
