SO MUCH SCIENCE!

Yesterday, Gavin shared with use how to defy gravity.  Turns out gravity and air pressure can work against each other to blow your mind. Fill a glass jar with water.  Cover the opening with a piece of cardboard or paper.  Turn the glass upside down.  Remove your hand.  THE WATER STAYS IN THE CUP!  The cardboard acts like a lid.  Mr. G told us that this works with a small screen too!  Thanks Gavin!

Then Mr. G came.  We did the coolest experiment with floating water (but it was really more like a water fountain).  It tied in nicely to what we learned from Gavin.  Check out the pictures below and ask us to explain how it works.  Hint: air takes up a lot of space...
