Today at school we did an experiment. It was called Super Skittles Surprise. First we predicted what we thought would happen. Miss Williams put skittles on a plate. Then she poured warm water over the skittles. The dye started to melt off the skittles. It started to make a rainbow in the water. It was so cool! Miss Williams messed it around and it turned all orange and red. I am going to try it at home. It shows skittles are filled with sugar. Think twice about what you eat!!!

Today we did a science experiment with Miss Williams. It was called Super Skittles Surprise. We put about 20 skittles on a plate and then poured warm water over the skittles. The result was instant, the dye came off the skittles forming a pattern in the water. All that was left of the skittles was the sugar. I wonder what will happen if you put cold water on? This experiment made me think twice about what I am eating. I thought it was very amusing.

First we talked about the experiment. Then we got sheets and wrote out what we thought would happen. After Miss Williams put skittles on a plate and put warm water on it. For the first minute nothing happened. One minute later all the dye was in the water and we got to see it. It was very cool. In the end all that was left was a lot of sugar.

Today at school we did a science experiment and it was called Super Skittles Surprise. We had to think about what we thought would happen to the skittles. Then we did the experiment. We put skittles on the plate and poured warm water on them. The colour dye came off and the colours joined together like a water rainbow. At the end of the experiment all that was left was a few sugar cubes and a bit of coloured water.

We did an experiment in school that was called Super Skittles Surprise. First we put some skittles on a plate and got some hot water. Next we poured some water all over the plate. The there was some dye around the skittles and soon there was dye in lines. It was so cool. That made me think twice about what I buy in the shop.
