We experimented with some gummy sweets in hot water and then some cold water. We realised that it would take some time with cold water for anything to happen, so we left the gummy minions safely in Miss Moffat's classroom. Miss T and Miss Moffat were there for us at lunchtime today to visit the magically expanding minions.
You can tell from the photographs below that they certainly changed.
We discussed how the water molecules would move into the minion which would make the minion grow. With the hot water, we could instantly see the sweet begin to dissolve. It was all very interesting!
As we like to try different things, we also used lemonade and oil, to see how they reacted. Take a look at the photos! The gummy heart in lemonade was interesting as the foamy part of the sweet looked VERY different.
