Kaleidoscopic Milk

For writing at the moment we are learning how to write about simple science experiments.  We did one that is called Kaleidoscopic Milk.  We used food colouring, milk and dish washing liquid.  Here is a photo story showing the method and results.

Well done Kingston and Jessie for recording this experiment using the camera.

We then tried it again but used a cotton bud dipped in the dishwashing liquid after we saw it on You Tube!  Here are the photos.

Here is Jessie L's published experiment:

Kaleidoscopic Milk

Equipment:

Milk

 Food Colouring

Bowl  

Dishwashing Liquid

Hypothesis:

 I think it is going to explode.

Method:

1.Pour the milk into the bowl.

2. Drop the food colouring into the bowl.

3. Put some diswashing liquid in the bowl.

Conclusion:

It swirled like a tornado and the colours mixed together.  My hypothesis was wrong because it didn't explode.
