Oobleck!






Is it a solid? Is it a liquid? Is it BOTH?!

Yesterday we experimented with Oobleck after reading the book, "Bartholomew and the Oobleck" by Dr. Seuss. If you want to make Oobleck at home, you can mix 2 boxes of corn starch with 1/2 quart of water, and add green food coloring. The students had a blast exploring this tricky substance, and it was a fun way to begin wrapping up our Matter unit.
