We put Mentos mints into a cola bottle and watched as it shot out of the bottle all over the grass! It made some of us jump!

Half of the class had a piece of milk chocolate and half the class had a piece of white chocolate, we had to let the chocolate melt on our tongues and not chew it (this was very hard!) and then put our hand up onc

After our investigation we found out that Ben was right because he was the
