Atoms

Right now I am in Utah at my grandparents house. My grandpa has an electrical set called "Elenco electronic snap circuits" that he uses to teach me and Solomon, my brother about electricity.  He taught me about how atoms form together to make everything from trees to people to water to mice. Everything is made out of atoms. Inside some atoms there is one proton that usually joins up with another one like it. . On the outside there are electrons that spin around the outside to find others to join with to make big things. There are other atoms that have two or more protons inside them that stay alone, rather than connecting to other atoms.  I am looking forward to learning more about how atoms work.

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.

Alexander Graham Bell

              Bell invented one of our most used objects today- the telephone. But he only started on it because he misunderstood a paper he had read at the art museum he had gone to. But , that led to the phone .So, whenever you have your phone  you can think of the man who made it, you can thank Alexander Graham Bell.
              Bell was born March 3,1847 in Edinburgh, Scotland . His dad had been a professor in the  University of Edinburgh ,but, also wrote  books that sold well in the UK as well as America. Alexander was homeschooled until he was 11 years old. Then he went to Edinburgh royal high school. Then he started his love of science , but, he did not do well in other subjects.
               After Bell was let out of school he taught at a school for the deaf. All while trying to invent the telephone. In 1870 Alexander moved to Canada with his Family. But, even after he moved he worked on the telephone. When the phone was invented he never kept one for the fear of getting distracted from his work.

Why is lip gloss so shiny?

Did you know what makes lip gloss so shiny? Oils make lip gloss so shiny but that is not it. Some of the ingredients in the lip gloss make it shiny but it depends on which brand and flavor it is because evey brand and flavor is different. The oils make it shiny and slippery because whenever you have oil in your hands it makes it really slippery and your hands look shiny, that is exactly what it does to lip gloss. Some of the ingredients make it shiny because the oils mixing with those ingredients make it even more shiny. Surprisingly, there is no water included in lip gloss because water and oils do not mix together, but it is crazy how the lip gloss can be so shiny but still have no water in the ingredients,but it is all because of the ingredients and oils. There is not a specific ingredient that makes it shiny. So just the oils and ingredients mixing makes it shiny. To learn more go HERE or HERE or HERE where I found my information.

Jim science talk pt 3 on Scratch

Hello! Jim is back on scratch and is gonna cover another topic- the color of a mirror. It has Ghostie from Luke's scratch stuff and will be the last topic in the Jim trilogy before the quiz. There will be a quiz on all three topics. Click here for the app that I'm talking about here.

I was gonna put a picture here but they are all the same.
