As part of our topic 'George's marvellous medicine' we have been learning all about solids, liquids and gases. We looked at how the particles were different in each state and even acted out behaving as the particles would! We were investigating cornflour starch, a sponge and some bubbles to see how their particles behaved and whether we thought they were a solid, liquid or a gas. The cornflour starch was very interesting to touch as it felt hard when you applied pressure to it but when you relaxed, it would fall through the gaps in your fingers. We recorded everything we found out in our books and Miss Newman was very impressed with our diagrams.
