Is it a liquid or a solid?

Watch the video to see what we did in our Science lesson.

In Science we have been looking at the properties of materials and sorting them as a liquid, a solid or a gas. Last week we mixed a liquid and a solid together and made a strange substance called Oobleck. We found out that it is a “non-Newtonian fluid” that can show the properties of both a liquid and a solid. It’s great fun to make, REALLY messy fun and great science. You should try to make some.
