a solid, liquid, or as a gas. Each camper will then create a chemical
reaction by mixing a polymer with food coloring and a saturated solution
of Borax and water. The slime you make is yours to keep.

Electricity: What Is static electricity and how
do we produce it? How can tiny particles illuminate a light bulb or make
