Science – fluffy slime

During Science Week, the girls in 5 Kostakis enthusiastically embarked on a hands-on adventure of creating fluffy slime, an engaging and educational experiment that combined fun with learning. Their faces lit up with excitement as we gathered the ingredients – a mixture of glue, shaving cream, and a dash of magical liquid.

With careful measurement and teamwork, they mixed the concoction, watching as it transformed from liquid to a satisfyingly (almost) fluffy texture. The result of it however wasn’t perfect and as a group we tried to adjust the measurements to see how we could fix it. Through this process, the girls learned about the principles of polymers and chemical reactions, all while enjoying a tactile and memorable experience that left them with smiles and a newfound appreciation for the wonders of science.
