Great demos

I found this YouTube Chanel made by a homeschooling parent with great videos to demo just about anything you can think of.  We will be using this soon!

Non-Newtonian Fluid - GOO!

Today I taught a lesson about the properties of solids, liquids, and gasses.  I also told them about something in between called non-Newtonian fluids.  Basically a solid with liquid properties.  Cornstarch and water.

Learn about it with Steve Spangler Science on Ellen here.

Also see a connection with The Big Bang Theory

Sorry if it is messy but it is so fun to try at home.  Perfect goo for Halloween!
