Let's change the color of cabbage juice

Ada Kindergarteners tackle a science experiment

FROM ADA BULLDOGS FACEBOOK - Here are some little scientists at work in Mrs. Smittle's kindergarten class.

Mrs. McAlpine taught a lesson using cabbage juice and regular kitchen items to change the color of the cabbage juice. She had a recording sheet for the students to record their observations.

Each student had five plastic test tubes with cabbage juice. The first one had nothing added to the cabbage juice. The students added vinegar (an acid) to the juice.

In the third container, the students added baking soda (a base). In the fourth test tube the students added sugar.

The topic is social media

A step back in Ada history

"Will you stop into the pharmacy and pick up a bottle of Phenobarbital? If they don't have that, just bring home some Beta-Cevalin." We doubt if that's something your doctor might prescribe, but you can see bottles of these items and lots more in the Pierstorf Pharmacy Museum in the ONU pharmacy building, next door to HeathWise Pharmacy. Here is a series of photos from one of the most unusual rooms you will ever see in Ada.
