What I find interesting  in pop art is digital name tag. I want to create a pop art on myself . I hope I would be able to make myself good at pop art.

Skittle Experiment

Method:

1. 1/2 fill a petri dish with water.
2. Carefully place 4 differently coloured skittles evenly spaced around the outside of the petri dish.

Hypothesis: I think that the colours from the skittles will come off the skittles.

Scientific reasoning:  The colours of skittles melted while it sank in the water.

1. What questions arose in your mind? ans. what will happen to the colours? will they mix?
2. What could you do to see if your ideas are correct?I will observe it properly.

Why doesn't food colouring mix?

Because of Molecules in a gas have lots of energy and spread out even more than molecules in a liquid. Skittles are coated in food colouring and sugar. When you pour water over the skittles the coloured coating dissolves spreading through the water.

Scientific reasoning: The skittles are  made of sugar and food colouring dissolves the food colouring moves over the water with sugar until it cannot move any further because of the other colours.

Planting Seeds

 Today for science we planted 4 kinds of seeds. We planted the seeds using an egg tray. There were:

1. Mustard.
2. Radish.
3. Sunflower.
4. Bean.

We are going to see how long these seeds take to germinate. Once they have grown we will be able to plant these.

A storm came and made a dam which was going to burst because  of over flowing. He saw a shiney watch in the eels lake an d he discovered that the eel likes shiny things so he exchanged a shiny chain with the watch and he saved everyone from the burst of dam. He was called a hero.My favorite part was when everyone called him a hero.
