Corn Starch and Worm Goo

 Corn Starch and Worm Goo Which is Better?

                    In the last couple of science classes we have done two major and fun labs. They have a couple of things in common. They both need water to work. They are both mixtures. There are some things different. They make different substances and have different textures. The corn starch experiment was made of water and corn starch. It made a liquid and a solid substance. The goo experience contained water and worm goo. It made a clear white strip of goo. When squeezed water sometimes comes out. It turns into a plastic like substance when the water evaporates. They two look, smell, and feel different. But they are both mixtures. Like mud or pancake batter. I found the corn starch experiment fun but I enjoyed playing with the little balls of worm goo more fun.

  1. I love worm goo and oobleck! They are the best. One thing you forgot to mention is that the corn starch was a solid and added to water. The worm goo and worm activator were both liquids that created a solid.
