Making Sherbert

We got a big blue science box delivered to our classroom........and we got a chance to be scientists!
We explored what happened when we mixed chemicals together and added water (saliva). We made sherbert and then we tasted it .

We found out that mixing together the baking soda and the citric acid produced a reaction. That reaction created gas - the bubbles that we could feel on our tongues. We felt our tongues tingling.
Most of us loved it!

Checking the labels on the ingredients.

Measuring the ingredients.


Tasting....


The reaction...
