Today at Enrich we did high interest stations,  I did science, we made elephant toothpaste. When it works  it looks really cool, it froths up and shoots up to the sky, it just goes on and on until it runs out of froth. We saw lots of videos of different people trying it. It looked so cool. We found that when we did it,  the bigger test tubes did bigger explosions. We put  food colouring in it to make it different colours. We had to choose partners, I chose Anna, we made a purple one.           

 HOW TO MAKE ELEPHANT TOOTHPASTE

 1. Put 3 tbs of yeast into a measuring cup.
2. Put about 3 dessert spoons of water in the measuring cup.
3. Stir until the yeast has dissolved. 
4.Get some of hydrogen peroxide and fill it up to half.
5. Put soap in any kind you like
6. Put in food colouring, any colouring you like. Only one drop.
7. Then put in the yeast mixture. 
Good luck!
