Science Box Experiments

It's not every day you have a scientist visits your class. An actual scientist in an actual white lab coat!
Shalini Guleria from Waikato University brought along a science box with different experiments for us to try. She talked about her job as a scientist before we conducted the experiments in groups.
One experiment used a balloon to bend the flow of water from a tap. Another used a magnet to magnetize a nail and pick up other metal objects. She also showed us an empty aluminium can trick and how to balance it on its edge. Cool as!
We are buzzing about science experiments and would love to do some more. Thanks Shalini!
