Science
This week we want you to have some fun at home with some cool science experiments.
Cornflour slime – make a non-Newtonian liquid which reacts to pressure.
You will need:
A large bowl, food colouring, 200-300g cornflour.
Put your hands in the slime and experiment with it, what happens when you pick it up? Do you think it’s a solid or a liquid?
Dancing raisins – watch as the carbon dioxide bubbles propel the raisins to the top of the glass.
You will need:
Club soda or another clear soda (7-Up, Sprite, etc, unopened is best) and raisins (fresh works best, separate them so they can dance).
Fizzy colours – make a chemical reaction!
You will need:
White vinegar, several different food colourings, bicarbonate of soda, paintbrush or medicine syringe, plastic cups and big flat tray.
Don’t forget to save a photo of your work into your work file in Purple Mash. You might also like to share with everyone on the school blog.
