Skittle Observations

 Hello bloggers today we did a experiment with skittles.This is what we did. 

 We put the skittles in a warm water and the water coloured but the skittles turned colourless.

Observations

  • What things did you notice?  Can you make five observations?

    •  The colours turned the water into the colours like if you put blue skittle on it the water turns blue but the skittle is colourless.  

    •   If you shake it the colours merge. 

    •   If you don’t shake it don’t merge.

    •   It smelt like medicine.

    •   It are sticky

  • Did anything surprise you?  What weren’t you expecting to observe? I actually know what to expect. 


Wonderings

  • What questions arose in your mind as you did this activity? What would happen if it’s cold water? 



  •  Do you have any ideas about why certain things happened? I think the water is sucking the dye and the dye didn’t mix because there is an invisible barrier. Mixing it the barrier breaks.
