Today at Enrich, the students that have been doing science and I had to make a circuit that makes lead light up!
You may think "How hard could it possibly be!" Well we had to only use things that you would find around your home. For example for a stand we used a toilet paper holder and for a cover for safety so the light does not burn and set on fire we used a jar!
We used a pie tin to put the holder on so it would not catch fire.
Here is a picture of a lead light but it is a different version.
Hello today was the first day on of Enrich for term 3! Today we got the choice to do tessellations, chemistry or art. I choose chemistry because I had never done it. The chemistry we did was making elephant toothpaste!. Yes it does sound strange but it is awesome!
To make it you need the following:
A test tube
Food colouring (optional)
A glass
Yeast
A teaspoon and tablespoon
Hot water
Soap
Hydrogen peroxide
Steps:
1. Pour the hydrogen peroxide into the test tube till it is 3/4 full.
2. Add some food colouring (Optional).
3. Add a squirt of soap.
4. With the glass add a teaspoon of yeast and add hot water stir it till it has dissolved.
5. Add the yeast to the test tube and watch the explosion!
