Year 4 were very excited today as we made some oobleck during our Science lesson. We know from our knowledge organisers that scientist find it difficult to categorise which state of matter oobleck is so we were intrigued to find out why.
We first made the oobleck with 2 cups of cornflour and 1 cup of water. We then carried out a number of tests and recorded what we observed. We found that when we tried to quickly grab some
oobleck from the bowl that it was difficult as it felt like a solid. However when we rolled the oobleck into a ball in our hand and held it, it would change from a solid to a liquid.
