Colloids, an interesting scientific word!

In Science today, we learnt more about the states of matter.


Firstly, our investigation began with using a  magnifying glasses to examine whipped cream to decide its state of matter.

Initially, I decided it was a solid matter because it kept its shape.  However, when a 10 cent coin was added, I  noticed almost immediately, that the solid matter changed its form to appear more like a liquid.


As we experimented with the whipped cream, our science teacher,
Ms Gawith explained how materials altering between two states of matter, are called a colloid.
This was a new word for me, and I felt very excited about learning it.

WALHT: Write a recount about our Technicraft experiments.
