Scientific Method - Mixing or Layering Liquids

I am sure your 3B child has chatted with you about our introduction activity in science.  I posed a question to them as to what cranberry juice, blue Gatorade, and Diet 7-up would do when they were poured on ice.  This was the basis for our question about liquids layering or mixing.  The students made a "hypothesis" about what they thought would happen and observations along the way.  To test other liquids, the students brought in their own to test with small groups.  They were beyond excited and it was super cool!  Now we need to find out why some layered and some mixed....that will be our discussion today.

I wanted to share some pictures of the students' findings.  I received some emails from parents last night saying how excited their child was to discuss the activity!  That is awesome!
