As part of their science unit on "Mixing Things" students in 1M watched a video which showed how Aboriginal people create their paints and ochre.
To determine which was the best ingredient to use in creating paint the children used chalk and mixed it with water, milk and clear glue. The students decided that both water and glue created the best paint.
They had such fun and can't wait to do more experiments.
