 Whatzit?
 When you do a quick jab, the Whatzit? acts like a solid.
When you do a slow poke, the Whatzit? acts like a liquid.


Whatzit? by Zach and Conor
 This week in science we made Whatzit. You might ask what is Whatzit? You mix cornstarch and water. We experimented to see if it is a liquid or a solid. We thought it was a liquid at first but, it was both. When we felt it we only felt the top, it felt like a liquid, but when we jabbed hard it felt like a brick.

Have you ever mixed vinegar with baking soda? Well this week in science we did, IT WAS AWESOME! When you mix baking soda with vinegar, BAM, IT EXPLODES! We observed what it would do in a bag. The bag puffed up with carbon dioxide and, IT WAS AWESOME! This was a example of a chemical reaction. I wish we could do that again.
