NOTE FOR TEACHER:

Check for Student Understanding

Time to Experiment

Is it a Solid or Liquid?

Note to Teacher: Non-Newtonian fluids have properties of both solids and liquids. They can pour like a liquid or can hold their own shape. When they are touched, they can flow like a liquid. When left alone, they have their own shape. Other non-newtonian fluids include Ketchup and blood.

Make a simple non-newtonian fluid with corn starch dissolved in water.
Make oobleck with the students.
