Science Fun

We have been working on a unit titled "Deceit and Illusion" this week. We have been talking about people in the Bible who were deceived or deceitful and used optical illusions to show that you can't always believe your eyes.


We got this idea from a neat book called "It's Not Magic, It's Science". We cut the bottom of a milk carton and taped a plastic bag over the end. Lite a candle and blow out the candle by using the smack on the bag to force air out. The point was that even though we can't see the air, it is still in there and we can do something to make the air move and get the result we want.
