Great work today!!!  No fire alarm....huge sigh of relief.  I think my favorite part was watching you smell the vinegar/ chalk reaction (insert evil laugh here :)  Also, I loved the extra experiments you thought to try and thoroughly appreciate all of you getting prior permission before your attempt. 

 

Remember the take home message...Chemical changes form a new substance, with new properties.  In physical changes, only the form of the substance changes.
