Air is Everywhere Science Lab…

In science we are learning about Air & Aerodynamics.  Today we focused on one of the properties of air: Air Takes Up Space.  The students were placed in groups of 5 to conduct an experiement.  Basically, they had to create a seal between their beakers and their funnels.  The group that can keep water in the funnel the longest wins the contest…and proves that air takes up space (in the beaker).  Below are a few pictures showing what we were working on.
