The excitement has continued in Room 4. Our inspiration for writing last week was a vibrant experiment with milk and food colouring. Here is a sample of some of the writing.

Plane milk looks like a new sheet of snow on a cold winters day. Sitting in the white bowl untouched so peaceful.

Drip drop here comes the colors bang that’s disturbed the peaceful liquid  and now  here comes the dish washing liquid. Run colours run. All the colors dash to the side of the bowl and pile up on either side trying to escape the burning feeling of the dish washing liquid whipping around the bowl at a hundred miles an hour.

Snowflake white milk,undisturbed,plain,boring. Our   excitement bursting overboard. What was going to happen and how?  

The silence was broken, as the watery food colouring oozed  into the bowl . We watched the bowl, like we were  in an intense staring contest, waiting for something incredible to happen.   

Nothing happened. The colours lay frozen.  It was like they were playing silent ball, with no ball, until the dish washing liquid came along, then it was like the fuel to an engine.The colors swirled around like a washing machine. The bowl turned from plain, to as multicoloured as a rainbow.
