Chemistry experiment felt and water

This experiment was just like the last one. Apart from that we got a strip of filter paper and used a felt to put a dot on the paper I used a dark shade of purple. We then did the same process of letting it set in a test tube apart this time the liquid we used was water. After letting it sit in water it separates into pink dark blue and light blue.

Chemistry experiment

We started off by putting a teaspoon of sand

and 5 small leaves in a mortar and pestle.

We then tipped in some acetone and grinned it.

After it was a thick substance and almost looked

like mowed grass we got a toothpick and put a

small dot of the grinned up substance on a small

strip of filter paper, Tipped some chromatography

solution into a test tube and then placed the filter

paper into the test tube so that the dot was just

above the liquid. After being in the test tube for

a while the green dot separated into sections of

brown green and yellow.

Shark infested custard team building task



What interpersonal skill did you use today? We used our team working skills.


How did it help with the success of the activity? That we worked together by putting a hoop on the ground three people stepped into the front hoop and the other two people steeped from the back hoop into the middle hoop someone in the middle hoop without dragging it or stepping out of the hoop pick it up and pass it to the people in the front hoop they put it in front and we kept moving into the hoop in front until we reached the end.


Who did you work with that went well today? Today I worked well with my entire group Patrick, Isiah, Maddie and Quaiden.


If you were to do it again, how would you do it differently? If I was to do it again I wouldn't drag the hoop or step out of it because we then had to go back to the start because we would have got "bitten by a shark"
