Lesson Plan

Water's Superpower Plan

Students will observe how water dissolves sugar and salt but not sand, recording their findings to understand why water is called the universal solvent.

This lesson engages Pre-K learners in sensory-rich, hands-on experiments that build early scientific observation skills, foster curiosity about natural phenomena, and introduce basic concepts of solutions in an age-appropriate way.
