Apple Science

Along with learning knowledge about the topics in the Science curriculum, students need to gain an understanding of the Scientific Inquiry Process.  Follow this link to the Manitoba Education "My Child in School" website where this and other curricula is explained in detail.  

On Friday, September 11, we began an investigation to see what happens to apples left to hang by a window.  The one on the left was peeled and the other had its skin left on.  Students tried to predict how the apples will look after the weekend and beyond.  
Two more similar sized apples were hung up too.  The one on the left had four holes poked into it with a pencil and the one on the right had no holes.  What do you think will happen?  Keep watching this blog for updates!
