Let's make some popcorn dance. Scientifically speaking:Let's examine the chemical
reaction between vinegar and baking soda (sodium bicarbonate).
Things you’ll need: a clear, colorless glass; water;15 mL (Itbsp)
baking soda; food coloring; 50 mL (3 tbsp) vinegar; popcorn
kernels.
How to make your popcorn dance: 1. Fill the glass with water.
Add the baking soda, a few drops of food coloring and stir well.
2. Drop in the popcorn kernels then stir in the vinegar.
(If the kernels slow down, add more baking soda.)

1. Science comes from the Latin
word scientia, which means
knowledge.
2. Scientific study can be divided
into four major groups:
mathematics and logic, the
physical sciences, the life (
sciences, and the social sciences.
3. Alexander Graham Bell was
born on March 3, 1847. Bell, a
teacher of the deaf once told his
family he would rather be
remembered as such a teacher
than as the inventor of the
telephone.
What makes the popcorn dance? The baking soda and vinegar react and form
bubbles of carbon dioxide. The bubbles attach themselves to the kernels and carry
them to the surface. When the bubbles burst at the surface the kernels sink.
Scientists have good problem-solving skills. Can you use your problem-solving skills to help
the scientists' lab assistant?
Sam, Sue, Stephen, and Sheila are busy working in their labs and decide to order out for
lunch. Jenny, their lab assistant, is distributing their lunch orders. She can't remember who
ordered what. Here is what she does remember about the orders.
1. Each person ordered a sandwich or a hot dog and something else.
2. They never eat the same thing two days in a row.
3. Neither girl likes turkey.
4. Only Sheila likes yogurt.
5. Stephen had a turkey sandwich and a pear yesterday.
6. Sue put mayonnaise on her tuna sandwich yesterday.
7. The person who ordered the peanut butter sandwich also ordered the
yogurt.
8. The boys always order a piece of fruit.

4. Albert Einstein was born March
14, 1879 in Ulm, Germany.
He often wore his shoes without
socks and rarely wanted a haircut.
5. If someone says you are an
“Einstein,” consider it a
compliment. You are being
compared not only to a genius,
but to a gentle person.

James very proudly told everyone that he
is the brother of a famous scientist.
However, James doesn't have a brother!
Even so, he was telling the truth! How
could this be possible?
