Enjoy this freebie! It is a set of notes to send to your parents prior to doing an experiment about mixtures and solutions.
Prior to doing your experiment in class, send the first note out to your parents. It tells parents you will be doing the experiment and that you need donations! I suggest at least a week or week and a half in advance, and it’s even better if there is a weekend included because that gives parents time to get to the grocery store.
Then, collect the returned notes to see which items have been offered to be sent in. Fill in the second set of notes, and ask the parents to send in the items they offered and set the deadline the day before you do the experiment.
To see this experiment in action, read my blog post titled “Mixtures and Solutions Experiment” on Mrs. Thomas’ Teachable Moments.
