The Great Candy Corn Experiment

October 19, 2015 By fancyfreein4th

      Are you looking to add more inquiry into your science lessons?
What to teach the Scientific Method in a fun and festive way? Well, if
so, than you have got to take a look at my newest product, The Great Candy Corn Experiment!   This
activity will help your students work through the Scientific
Method
in
a fun and festive way. It will go over solutions and solvents by trying to
dissolve a fall favorite, Candy Corns.  

The Great Candy Corn Experiment is a fun way for students to practice the scientific method. An easy DIY experiment perfect that incorporates writing along with science.
Thank you to my beautiful Tara from Fourth Grade Frolics for sending me this snapshot of the experiment in action!

This set includes:
• Scientific Method Posters 
• 6
solvent signs
     Laminate to use each year and stock up on those Candy Corns, cheap and useful for lots of fun things in the fall. This experiment might make the students rethink whether or not to eat these festive fall treats!

• A
direction page and  4
observation, recording sheets with a
Final observations/conclusions report page

• Candy
Corn exit tickets and a summary writing extension piece. Both are PERFECT for a festive fall bulletin board!

I love anything that gets my students more excited about science and that includes writing in the process. You can pick up one of these sets here at my Teachers Pay Teachers store.

It is a great pre-Fall break activity, and can be done anytime in October or November!  I would love to give one of these away!  Just leave me a comment telling me something you are currently teaching along with your email and I will pick a winner tomorrow evening!

 

If you love this fall experiment check out this similar activity using candy canes for the Winter and Marshmallow Peeps for the Spring.  Fun all year round!
