Engagement Through Application

Science Magic – Creating a pH Rainbow For Any Age

So I showed this demonstration to my four year old and he loved it. I then showed it to my grade 10 science class, they loved it (although I couldn’t trick them to think it was actually magic) and then I showed my colleagues who were equally sceptical about its true magical properties but we’re […]
