Future Scientists

The students had an exciting time with our own parent scientist, Mrs. Singh on Thursday. They explore Capillary Action. This is the process by which water molecules stick to a solid surface and also to each other, so that each molecule pulls the next one along. They watched water moves through paper towel from one cup to the next and observed how water travelled through a plant’s stem to its petals. Take a look.
