Marker/Colour Experiement

Last year we did an experiment with old ("dried up") markers. Our SK students remembered this and wanted to repeat it. We have been saving old markers in a basket. The basket was full so it was time to get started! First, the children retested the markers to make sure they were actually "old". Then they sorted the markers by colour and placed them in clear cups with some water.  They loved seeing the colour appear in the water right away. The cups of markers have been sitting on our windowsill for several days. Stay tuned for further posts on our experiments!
