This was followed by the teacher demonstrating that air is needed for fire to burn. An inverted glass was placed over a burning candle and soon the flame extinguished to prove that fire cannot burn if the air supply is cut off.
These follow-up activities to the Water and Air topics done in EVS proved to be a fun learning experience for the children over the past week.
