Science experiment

Hello again today I'm going to show you a  science experiment that me and the rest of the Tumu hub did.
So ingredients:
1. 1 plate
2. a cup or  syringe
3. dish washing liquid
4. milk
5. and food coloring
Instructions: put the milk on the plate then scatter some food coloring in the middle in pattern you can create then get your syringe or cup and put the dish washing liquid in them now poor some dish washing in the middle of the milk and...
BOOM! the food coloring goes outwards making a pattern. Its really cool I have no idea why it does that but its cool try it for your self and comment me telling me what happened with yours.
Do you like science?

How its done. I found this on a website to explain what happens;

Milk is mostly water, but it also contains vitamins, minerals, proteins, and tiny droplets of fat suspended in solution. Fats and proteins are sensitive to changes in the surrounding solution (the milk).

The secret of the bursting colors is in the chemistry of that tiny drop of soap. Like other oils, milk fat is a non-polar molecule and that means it doesn’t dissolve in water. When soap is mixed in, however, the non-polar (hydrophobic) portion of micelles (molecular soap structures in solution) break up and collect the non-polar fat molecules.Then the polar surface of the micelle (hydrophilic) connects to a polar water molecule with the fat held inside the soap micelle. Thanks to the soap connection, literally, the non-polar fat can then be carried by the polar water. This is when the fun begins.

                                                                       

Team building

Every day of the first week of term 3 we have been doing something fun that the teachers like to call team building. Team building is crafting something or doing an activity for instance the first day we had to stack some cups without using our hands but to use a rubber band tied to some string. The next day we had to make the tallest stablest tower out of marsh mallows and pasta sticks. The next day we had to create a stretcher to get a bag of cereal as a kid (PRETEND) and a cup of water without it spilling across a limited amount of distance.
The last one was fun we had to create a chain out of one sheet of paper and a meter of tape.
But the hole meaning of this was to work as a team  and of cause i succeeded (not, i didn't win any of them).
If you had to create a team building challange what would it be.
