ICE SPHERES

As a part of our 3D shape exploration, we engaged in an ice sphere science experiment. First, we each filled a balloon with water and popped it in the freezer. Next, we took our balloons out of the freezer and we had ICE SPHERES! Then, we cut the balloons off, sprinkled the ice spheres with salt and listened and watched as the ice crackled and popped. Finally, we poured food colouring on top of the salt and observed the colour run through all of the ice cracks and crevices. We had a lot of fun learning about 3D shapes.
