Science Firsthand February Group Meetng

Brought back by popular demand was Cake Chemistry, an activity where participants investigate chemical reactions between ingredients in everyday food we eat, specifically cake. Participants first tested baking soda and various ingredients including lemon juice, water, vinegar, milk, and eggs.  Which ones do you think resulted in the most visible reactions? After they tested the ingredients they used what they learned to create their own cake receipes. As you can see, we need some more time in the kitchen! Go to Firsthand Learning, Inc. to see the other activities we did and blogs the students made about their investigations!
