Trey experienced a number of hands on experiments including make predictions about oil and water, thinking around why mentos makes diet coke explode into a volcanic eruption, questioning why white, brown and dark chocolate melt at different rates, predicting if ice melting will impact on the level of water, and predicting what impact salt has on the rate ice melts.
Evaluation: Trey participated in these experiments. He got to ask questions, make predictions and get involved in seeking answers for the questions we asked.

to learn how to label and report information about technological practice.

Evaluation: Trey participated in technology practice by designing biscuits, making a mosaic photo frame, halloween cupcakes, and writing stories which were then made into imovies.
