Our Egg and Vinegar Experiment

 

The children observed an normal egg and all of it's properties (ie. Hard shell, white, pointy ends, etc).

We then placed it in a jar and added vinegar!  Over the next few days, we observed the changes that occurred and made hypothesis' about what the end result might be.

In the end, we discovered that the vinegar pulled the calcium out of the shell, and caused it to disintegrate.....leaving the egg soft and squishy, but still intact.
