Another Celebrated Dancing Bear


Our art work:

We did a fun experiement while we discussed boiling water. The beans represent the molecules. The higher the temperature gets, the more they move around. Seth shook the jar gently at first, then with more force. The result was beans flying out of the jar, representing steam.
