Skittles Experiment

Today we made another experiment the skittles. This one was quite hard to get photos so I only have 1. It goes quick because the water is disolving the colours from the skittles.

Come with me and lets see how this works.

Aim: To use chromatography to get the col,our out of the skittles.

The materials you will need are...

1. Petrie dish
2. Skittles
3. Water

The steps

1.  Get 1 petrie dish 
2. Get at least 5 or 6 skittles
3. Evenly spread the skittles out so they arent together.
4. Add water
5. Get ready to take photos. But be quick to take photos.

Conclusion: Chromatography - you can use water which takes the colour out of the skittles.



I only got one photo as this was the only good photo out of 3. By the way after the experiment has finished, yes it safe to eat the skittles and water. Remember you could do this on a plate to.

Have fun!!

 I worked well in playback by… Working together as a group Playing with other groups And we taught other groups to play our way of football We had some warm up games called… Silly bananas bench ball, Ki O Rahi as well and kick long ball The best game I had enjoyed was Silly bananas as you can peel the bananas and it sometimes made me hungry. I also really enjoyed playing kick Long ball, wait… We played kick long ball the other day but it was better. it had a new name for it, the way we played anyways. It was called Fat Mat Slat. The way Flat mat splat works is its mostly the same way as kick long ball but you don't run straight to the end to be safe you have be on the checkpoint which is the mats When I was talking about the football and teaching other groups how to play it I was really meaning there was other groups presenting other ways to other groups on how to play their sport. There was four groups which mean 2 groups for each sport. There was netball, Football, touch and basketball I really enjoyed the playback Hurumanu https://drive.google.com/open?id=1YzBNQnu9rBrfd1O2lrD-jmqkqidojahI

 Students Comment: I would like the teachers to not always have the same group go when we do some physical stuff like I mean outdoors. Ds always goes first and Sh always has to wait for p4. It is ok but like next time they could think about that for the next people who are doing Hurumanu playback.

Well done on completing your movie script, filming different camera angles, completing your blog posts and working well within a group.
You display efficiency in your work and it’s great that you have enjoyed this module. It was challenging working with other students that you didn’t know very well, but you were mature and asked a teacher to help you resolve a problem if you couldn’t resolve it yourself. Ka pai.
