In science, we have done a lot of activities for the first quarter. My favorite activity of the first quarter in science was By Golly By Gum By Time. This activity was to see if the mass of the gum would increase or decrease over time when we chewed it. I said it would increase because all the saliva was being absorbed in the gum. Every two minutes we would weigh the gum and check the gum's mass. I was wrong because the gum's mass decreased. It decreased because the saliva was breaking down the sugars in the gum.
This activity was to teach us how to measure mass with a triple beam balance.
