THE CLIMBING RAINBOW. (English)
The science behind it? This experiment explores concepts such as cause and effect, the scientific process, and capillary action!
Materials

Water Based Markers

Paper Towel (Bounty)

String, Ribbon or Tape

Paper clip

Pencil

Water

Scissors

Disposable tray

Instructions:
STEP 1: Trace a rainbow on a half sheet paper towel
STEP 2: CUT
Cut the rainbow shape out
STEP 3: COLOR
Using water based markers-add the colors of the rainbow to the bottom of each side of the paper towel
Be sure to color about 1/2 inch above the bottom of the paper towel
STEP 4: COLOR OTHER SIDE
Flip the paper towel over and color the rainbow on the other side as well
STEP 5: SET UP
Connect a string to a paperclip
Clip the paperclip to the middle of the rainbow
Tape the string to window so just the bottom of the paper towel rainbow touches the bottom of the tray or pan
STEP 6: ADD WATER AND OBSERVE
Add water to the dish to a depth of about 1/2 inch
Observe what happens
Ask you child questions about what they see
Explain to your  child how the colors are “climbing” up the rainbow” (See explanation below)
This science experiment takes about 30 minutes for the rainbow to climb up both sides and meet in the middle. Rema Mean while you wait is dancing time!
- Record your observations in work sheet! ☺️

EL ARCO IRIS ESCALADO. (ESPAÑOL)
¿La ciencia detrás de esto? ¡Este experimento explora conceptos como causa y efecto, el proceso científico y la acción capilar!
Materiales:

Marcadores a base de agua

Toalla de papel

Cuerda, cinta o cinta

Clip de papel

Lápiz

Agua

Tijeras

Bandeja desechable

Instrucciones:
PASO 1: Trace un arco iris en una toalla de papel de media hoja
PASO 2: CORTE
Corta la forma del arco iris
PASO 3: COLOR
Usando marcadores a base de agua, agregue los colores del arco iris en la parte inferior de cada lado de la toalla de papel
Asegúrese de colorear aproximadamente 1/2 pulgada por encima de la parte inferior de la toalla de papel
PASO 4: COLOREAR EL OTRO LADO
Dale la vuelta a la toalla de papel y colorea el arcoíris del otro lado también
PASO 5: CONFIGURAR
Conecte una cuerda a un clip
Sujeta el clip al medio del arcoíris.
Pegue la cuerda con cinta adhesiva a la ventana de modo que solo la parte inferior del arco iris de la toalla de papel toque la parte inferior de la bandeja o sartén
PASO 6: AGREGUE AGUA Y OBSERVE
Agregue agua al plato a una profundidad de aproximadamente 1/2 pulgada
Observa lo que pasa
Hacerle preguntas a su hijo sobre lo que ven.
Explíquele a su hijo cómo los colores están “trepando” por el arco iris ”(vea la explicación a continuación)
Este experimento científico tarda unos 30 minutos en subir el arco iris por ambos lados y encontrarse en el medio. ¡Rema Mean mientras esperas es hora de bailar!
- ¡Registre sus observaciones en su hoja de calculo! ☺️

LEAK PRROF BAG (ENGLISH)
What is the science behind?
Plastic bags are made of a polymer called low-density polyethylene. Polymers are long chains of molecules. The tip of the pencil squeezes between the chains without breaking them but the chains’ flexible property helps to form a temporary seal against the edge of the pencil. This enables a pencil to pierce the bag without losing even one drop of water.
Materials:

Zipper storage bag

Water

Several sharpened pencils

Instructions:
STEP ONE: Fill up the zipper storage bag about 2/3 full of water. After squishing out the air, we made sure the zipper was sealed tight.
Ask your child what they think would happen if you stabbed a pencil through the bag.

STEP TWO: Using the sharp end of one pencil, quickly push it through the bag.

STEP THREE:  It went in one side and out the other – without spilling a drop didn’t it?
Let your child push the pencils inside bag.
Take time to give out conclusions. (:

BOLSA ANTIFUGAS (ESPAÑOL)
¿Qué hay detrás de la ciencia?
Las bolsas de plástico están hechas de un polímero llamado polietileno de baja densidad. Los polímeros son largas cadenas de moléculas. La punta del lápiz se aprieta entre las cadenas sin romperlas, pero la propiedad flexible de las cadenas ayuda a formar un sello temporal contra el borde del lápiz. Esto permite que un lápiz perfore la bolsa sin perder ni una gota de agua.
Materiales:
Bolsa de almacenamiento con cremallera
Agua
Varios lápices afilados

Instrucciones:
PASO UNO: Llene la bolsa de almacenamiento con cremallera aproximadamente 2/3 de agua. Después de aplastar el aire, nos aseguramos de que la cremallera estuviera bien sellada.
Pregúntele a su hijo qué creen que sucedería si usted clavara un lápiz en la bolsa.

PASO DOS: Con el extremo afilado de un lápiz, empújelo rápidamente a través de la bolsa.

PASO TRES: Entró por un lado y salió por el otro, sin derramar una gota, ¿no?
Ahora deje que su pequeñ@ que introduzca los lápices dentro de la bolsa.

Reflexionen (:

Raisins Dance: (ENGLISH)
This simple states of matter experiment will allow students to see how solid, liquid, and gas substances react. What's the science behind this experiment: Students will see the raisins “dancing” in the soda. The raisins will fall to the bottom of the glass and then float back up to the top. They will then fall again. What is happening in the carbonation gas from the soda adheres to the raisin. This causes the raisins to float to the top. Once the bubble pops at the surface, the raisin then falls to the bottom again.

Materials:
Glass
Raisins
Clear soda, such as Sprite

Instructions:
STEP 1: Pour soda into a clear glass.
STEP 2: Add some raisins and watch what happens.
- Questions to Spark More Curiosity & Critical Thinking
What do  you see? What do you think makes the raisins go up? And why do you think they go back down again?

Danza de pasas: (ESPAÑOL)
Este simple experimento de estados de la materia permitirá a los estudiantes ver cómo reaccionan las sustancias sólidas, líquidas y gaseosas. ¿Cuál es la ciencia detrás de este experimento? Los estudiantes verán las pasas "bailando" en el refresco. Las pasas caerán al fondo del vaso y luego volverán a flotar hacia arriba. Luego volverán a caer. Lo que está sucediendo en el gas de carbonatación de la soda se adhiere a la uva pasa. Esto hace que las pasas floten hacia arriba. Una vez que la burbuja estalla en la superficie, la uva pasa nuevamente al fondo.

Materiales:
Vaso transparente
Pasas
Refresco transparente, como Sprite

Instrucciones:
PASO 1: Vierta la soda en un vaso transparente.
PASO 2: Agregue algunas pasas y observe lo que sucede.
- Preguntas para despertar más curiosidad y pensamiento crítico
¿Qué ves? ¿Qué crees que hace subir las pasas? ¿Y por qué crees que vuelven a bajar?

Ms. Principal and all first grade teachers will have a discussion about creating a science night April 21 wit the administrators permission.
- We will discuss about the activities taking place in the cafeteria to use the tables as a set up and as it is the biggest place.
- The funds will come from "Hold a scratch card fundraiser"
Scratch card fundraising is a great way to reach a school’s fundraising goals fast. Volunteers approach their friends, family, and neighbors and ask them to scratch two circles off of their fundraising card. Under each circle is a small donation amount ($0.50-$3.00). Teachers will also ask relatives for any donations with materials.
- Safety precautions will be monitored by one adult in each lab. All materials used will be children safe as well. We will have all safety equipment just in case and for children to observe and remember their use but googles and lab coats will be used in each station.
- Participants will be teachers and any tutors who volunteer.
- There will be Pizza Hut delivered (different toppings), sodas, horchata, juice, water, chips, popcorn and cookies.
- Two teachers will be monitoring the event, writing down any changes we should make and what we should keep doing for the upcoming years. This teachers will also be helping in the event if needed. All teachers in first grade will help set up the event.
