Back in September, when we did a week on apples I had several different "versions" of apples for the kiddos to taste. Such as apple sauce, apple butter, apple chips, dehydrated apples etc.
Well, for snack today I pulled back out the dehydrated apples and my fours remembered an experiment we did with them. We dropped a
few pieces of the dried apple into our water cup and watched it
re-hydrate.
One of my kiddos announced: "I'm going to do an experiment. Remember Ms. Sara?" And he dropped a handful of dried apples into his water cup.
Another kiddo joined in and sprinkled a few in her cup. Then she added a Teddy Graham. "He floats like the apples!" The first kiddo took this as a challenge and crushed up one of his Teddy Grahams and told her, "Tiny pieces sink." And they did. Then he tasted some of his apple pieces and declared: "Dry apple turned back into an apple!" Great experimenting guys!
