making sherbert

Learn: We learnt how to make sherbet we are investigating and exploring chemical reactions
Create: We created sherbet to share with ourselves and our whanau/ family
Share: We have written the instructions on how to make sherbet here.  


In a bowl mix the ingredients 
Icing Sugar 1 teaspoon
Baking soda ¼ teaspoon
Raro or some other  flavour ½ teaspoon 
Put in bag and mix 

When you take it what do you observe: Sour, sweet,  fizz,  foam, chemical reaction, bubbly.
What is happening?  The baking soda is a base and the citric acid is an acid. The icing sugar and (Raro)  flavour and there or taste. As a solid the acid and the base do not react but in the presence of moisture (saliva) the citric acid and the baking soda react to give off carbon dioxide gas - this feels like a popping or fizzing sensation! Citric Acid ½ teaspoon
Icing Sugar 1 teaspoon
Baking soda ¼ teaspoon
Raro or some other  flavour ½ teaspoon    
Put in bag and mix 

summer learning journey.

 Today in Cybersmart I  learned about the Summer Learning Journey. It is a challenge you can do over the holidays. We created a piece of art today, I did two NASA addition colourings and it was hard to choose the colours but it worked out good. I am sharing one of them with you today, what do you think? What is your favourite type of art
