Cornflour Paste!

In Science today Year Six recapped on the properties of solids and liquids. We then created Cornflour paste. Together we worked to identify whether this new material was a solid or a liquid. Cornflour paste is a strange substance which behaves like a solid if you move through it quickly and a liquid when it is moved slowly. We even managed to roll it into a ball, however as soon as we stopped moulding it, it dripped back into the dish! We had great fun and it caused lots of discussion!
