Science Week
Tigers took part in scientific experiments to observe at which temperature yeast grew best.
When baking bread, yeast is added to dough as a raising agent to make it rise. The ‘bubble’ structure that can be seen in cooked bread is caused by a gas (carbon dioxide) that yeast produces as it consumes sugar and grows.
The children measured out equal parts of sugar and yeast.
The sugar and yeast mixture was added to three bottles which had 3 different temperatures of water in: 15°C, 30°C and 45°C. The mixture was then shaken with lids were on! After removing the lids, a balloon was attached to each of the bottles.
Tigers observed which balloon was the biggest therefore which temperature produced the most gas!
The children absolutely loved this!!!
