We created craters using three different substances: corn starch, flour, and sugar. The kids had a blast making hypotheses about which substance would yield the largest, widest, and deepest craters! We completed this lab as part of a study of the moon. It made a little bit of a mess, but they learned a lot and they had a lot of fun in the process!

Your science experiment looks so like so much fun! I teach grade six in Ontario and there are not any links to the chemistry part of science in my grade:( I hopped on over to invite you to join the Blog by Province Linky I am hosting at http://teachingisagift.blogspot.ca/p/blog-by-province.html. I am hoping to get as many teacher bloggers from across Canada as I can to join in. If you know any other bloggers who you think would like to link up, please feel free to forward the information. I hope you will consider joining in the all Canadian Fun!
Sometimes the simplest materials are the best! Great job 🙂
