Christopher's science book, Apologia General Science, had about five science experiments that he completed on Tuesday. He was looking forward to it at first but after finishing off the first two it became a little tiresome. But with a little help he was able to get them all done. The goal of the experiments was to learn about the surface tension of water. Here is some pictures from one of his experiments:
First he filled a bowl with water and sprinkled on pepper. Than he had to dip in various objects and observe what happens.
Tweezers - nothing happened
Tissue - pepper moved away slightly
Piece of soap - surface tension of the water was broken and the pepper was pushed away towards the sides of the bowl.
