Mystical Color Breakdown!
Materials you will need:
• Water
• paper (letter size or smaller)
• a dish with an edge
• 4 felt tip markers and Tape
Procedure:
1. Line up your blotting paper and the lids of the marker pens that you will use this experiment.
2. Leaving space from the bottom of the blotting paper press each color marker pen down on the blotting paper gently so that a dot has formed.
3. Tape your blotting paper to the top of your baking tin making sure that there is a bit of space left at the bottom so that you can pour some water in. Leave about half an inch from the bottom edge of the tin.
4. Slowly pour in some water until it just reaches the bottom of the blotting paper - making sure that the colored markings (dots) do not dip into the water.
5. Watch to see what happens to all the colors. as the water is being absorbed by the blotting paper.
6. Keep an eye on the circles that you colored to see what happens as the water travels up the blotting paper and reaches your markings.
