See Hot Air Rise: An Experiment

Lars, Lisa and Hannah had just read The Magic Schoolbus: Inside a Hurricane for 2R Book Club. They decided to do one of the little experiments described in the sidebar… See Hot Air Rise. After an unsuccessful paper spiral, they switched to a heavier card and presto! It worked! In this video, Lars and Lisa describe what is happening, why they think it’s happening and how it connects to weather. Enjoy… And try making your own!

    It’s wonderful to see the children becoming scientists and doing experiments! Thank you Mister Raskin.
