November Science Experiments

We love all things fall!

And we love when we can connect fall and November holidays across all of our curriculum areas.

So we talk about our veterans and their sacrifice using our Veterans Day emergent readers. As the weather starts getting crisper, our little learners have a blast with our Ice Fishing Science Experiment. And we get ready for Thanksgiving with our favorite Fine Motor Turkey activity.

But we also love to connect fall and November with science. And when we incorporate fall and science, students learn without realizing they’re learning!

There are so many fun ways to explore Science Experiments that add a seasonal theme. We’ve created these four November Science Experiments so your students can conduct science experiments, make hypotheses, ask and answer scientific questions and record their observations.

Want even more November activities? Be sure to take a look at all of our Thanksgiving Crafts for Little Learners.

Dancing Corn

To connect the fall season with science I've created four November Science Experiments so our students can review science in an enjoyable hands-on way!

When your students see the Dancing Corn they will be fascinated, so it’s an easy way to get little ones engaged in the activity.

When preparing this fall-themed science experiment students are able to develop their hypotheses, make observations, and then record their results about the reaction when the materials combine.

Your kids will not be able to take their eyes off of these magical dancing corns!

Mayflower Boats

This activity is perfect to use while getting ready for Thanksgiving. With the Mayflower Boat experiment, you’re able to discuss buoyancy and the physics behind sinking and floating.

Students use their engineering skills and trial and error to design their own boats.

Play Dough Leaf Prints

This Play Dough Leaf Prints experiment is an enjoyable way to connect nature with science.

Students are able to compare and contrast the different colors and the veins in their leaves. It also provides a way for you to discuss the science behind photosynthesis.

Making Butter

Your kids will have a blast seeing that they can make butter right in their classroom.

Students see the fat particles separate and cling together right before their eyes. They’ll observe the relationship between butter and buttermilk in this delicious and easy hands-on experiment.
