Oobleck!

Today was another incredible day in kindergarten!  We read Bartholomew and the Oobleck by Dr. Seuss.  After reading the book, we made a Multi-Flow Map which helps us understand cause and effect.  

After specials, our 5th grade buddies came in and kindergarteners were given a Baggie with Oobleck in it!  It was interesting to see that Oobleck can be made into a ball, but if it sits in your hand, it melts!  To make Oobleck, mix food coloring with 1 cup of water, then add 1-1/4 cups of corn starch.  It does not mix as easily as sugar and water, but it will mix.
