Our Lemon Drink "Fizzled" Out

Tuesday, our plan was to make a lemon fizzy drink using lemon juice, baking soda, sugar, and water. Our drinks in the first class did not turn out that good! We determined that we used too much baking soda; some students did not make their drink yet and listened to the other students, so their drinks were delish! In the second class, we altered our plan and the lemon fizzy drinks turned out great!! The kids really enjoyed them :)

We used this as a learning experience in the first class. As scientists, our students need to understand that experiments need to be done more than one time. Today, we made modifications to our plans and will try again tomorrow!
