MAKING PLAY DOUGH

In Science we are still focusing on our Solid, Liquids, and Gas unit. We are exploring how to change liquids to solids, and solids to liquids. We conducted a really exciting experiment..... WE MADE PLAY DOUGH... 

We used:
FLOUR
WATER
SALT
FOOD COLORING

We mixed these ingredients together kneaded the  dough until it became stiff.. once that happened each child got a piece and was able to make something with it. I am going to keep these Science/Art pieces in the class on display .... This was a fantastic, hands on experiment to really see what happens when you mix ingredients (mixture) and change a liquid into a solid...
