This afternoon Room 9 was lucky enough to make "oobleck" with Nicky!
Oobleck is a strange kind of solid/liquid.
When you touch it, it feels hard like a solid. When you press your finger in it is squishy like a liquid.
Sam thought it was a bit like "sinking sand". You can pick up oobleck and it becomes drippy like a liquid!
The only ingredients we used to make it was cornflour, water and green food colouring.

Hi there Room Nine,
What an awesome activity you have been doing! Is this "oobleck" also known as home-made "slime"? I think I have heard about this funny stuff before, but I am sure my Room 4 kidz will know ... then again maybe not! So I will have to share your cool photos with them!
Also something else that had me wondering ..... "Was it 'Inside-Out T-shirt Day' today? My kidz will be so disappointed that they missed it! (giggle, giggle!). I will have to mark it down on the calendar so that we don't miss it next year! Keep up the fantastic work, Room Nine and Teachers!
From Chrys and Room 4 at Reporoa
