Today we had our first ever session of science club and it was fantastic!
We were investigating solids and liquids. We carried out an experiment using cornflour, water and a little food colouring. We made some predictions as to what we thought would happen.
Euan – I predict that it will bubble up.
Robyn – I predict that it will go even whiter.
Oliver – I predict that it will explode!
After making our predictions we set to work. What we found was that when we mixed the flour and water together it looked like a liquid but when we felt it with our fingers it felt like a solid! How puzzling.
We had great fun writing our sounds and names in the ‘gloop’ and watching it disappear before our very eyes!
We can’t wait to find out what experiments we will be doing next week!
