Surface Tension
Today we learned that water is actually quite sticky! What we mean is, that water has a high surface tension. We completed an experiment using water, pennies, and eye droppers where we were able to actually see the surface tension! We learned that when the water spilled off of the penny the surface tension broke. Take a look at some of our pennies!
We also looked at a bug called the Water Strider that uses water tension to make it look like it can walk on water!
I wonder if the Grade ones and twos can show you another example of surface tension at home?
