Squishy Egg




We covered a raw egg with vinegar and then left it for 2 days. When we felt it the egg felt spongy and squishy. There was lots of froth and scum in the vinegar because the egg shell had dissolved in the vinegar. Some people wanted to take some of the egg home so Mrs Sumby got the knife and cut into it. Oops! There was a strong rubbery membrane around the egg but it was still raw egg inside! We have poured the vinegar back over the egg to see what happens to that.

Colour Mixing Race.


We had a colour mixing race. We put milk into a container then added a few drops of different coloured food colouring. We put a drop of detergent in the middle. It went all swirling and whirling. It made awesome patterns.
