The Chemistry BEGINS!

We've started looking at chemical reactions.  Today was the kind of day the I recall from childhood.  Perhaps you had a Science Kit and perhaps you just went through the bottles of items under your sink, but most likely you once mixed random things together to see what would blow up.  Today, my students are doing just that...in a controlled setting.

The excitement is still there.  Sometimes they might think that if they get the right combination of chemicals, they'll set fire to the school (they won't).  But I enjoy watching them try.
