Yeast Experiment in Science Class

(9/26): Ms. Swain and Mrs. Whitworth’s 6th Grade Science classes learned how yeast makes bread rise by conducting a yeast explosion experiment. They found out that as decomposers, yeast must be fed. Once the yeast is activated by warm water and has eaten the sugar, it lets off carbon dioxide which filled the balloon causing it to rise much like bread! We only had one explosion though! Whew!
