Oobleck

I did a science experiment on corn starch and water mixed together.

You need
Corn starch
Water
Food coloring (optional)
A bowl

All you have to do is mix the water and the corn starch in the bowl and if you want to put
food coloring and wait 5 minutes. After have been sitting pick up the mixture and move it
around in your hands. Is it solid? Now stop moving it around. Is it oozing down your hand?

After making the Oobleck, we added the purple slime to the mixture. I thought the Oobleck and
the slime would mix together but they stayed separated but the color spread from the slime to the
Oobleck.

  1. Something interesting about Ooblek that I learned is that it was named after the book Bartholemew (Not sure i spelled that right) and The Ooblek by Dr. Suess.

  2. Jerry, what Science did you learn from doing this activity? You might need to do some research & find 3 reliable sources to support what you learned.
