Mini Professors- Gravity

5th May 2024

We enjoyed our final session of Mini Professors on Thursday with Adam. We learnt about Gravity and how Isaac Newton told everyone about it. Did you know there is a small amount of gravity in Outer Space- it’s called micro gravity!

We did 3 experiments: We tested lots of different objects to see which one fell to the ground the quickest. All of them fell at the same speed except for the feather.

Then we made our own special paper helicopters and enjoyed watching them spin and float floor.

Then we headed outside for out final experiment- we added mentos to a bottle of coke and watched in shoot high in the air.

We have learnt so much from our Mini Professor sessions- Science is all around us!
