Mrs. Egan's first grade class at High Point Elementary has been learning about the scientific method! To practice the steps, they completed a science experiment where they cut four different varieties of apples and observed which variety turned brown the quickest in the air. The students came up with a question and hypothesis, completed the experiment, made a chart with their observations and data (on the screen behind the students), and wrote out their conclusion. They found that Red Delicious apples turned brown the quickest!
