Ok well not the floor but the classroom was certainly well lit by the amazing lava lamps created during this week’s STEM Club. Our year 5/6 pupils enjoyed observing what happened when they tried to combine oil and water. They then added some drops of food colouring and an Alka Seltzer tablet which provided the citric acid magic! The pupils were fascinated watching the bubbles of gas recreating the effect of a real lava lamp. This was even more effective when we turned the lights out and put an I-phone under the bottle to act as a torch.
The floor is lava!
