The Food Lab: Butter in a Jar
Bring physical changes to life with a fun, hands-on STEM activity.
With the Butter in a Jar Experiment, learners make butter and buttermilk by shaking cream and salt in a jar. As the mixture transforms, they explore physical changes, states of matter, and scientific observation.
Adaptable across grade levels
You can adapt the discussion and reflection to suit a wide range of learners— introduce early science concepts in the primary grades or explore matter, mixtures, and physical changes with older students.
