Wicking water
So this week we had Whaea Annie as our teacher and she was teaching everyone about science. I wasnt here when they did the actual science. I was here when they were talking about what happened over night. So this is my opinion on what I saw.

So I could see different types of jars some where tall, big and small. My teams group where mostly about the same size. Anyways there were differnt colors in the jar ( Food Coloring). Then there were tissue papers going into one of the jars then into the next. But the tissue papers werent the color white they were all different colors like yellow,blue,pink,red, orange, etc. But it looked very different and interesting. I was told about how the tissue paper blended and mixed with the different colors. I also learnt about capillary action.

Capillary action means that the liquid( Water and food coloring) will be able to flow in to small or thin places. There where only three colors used in this (Red, Blue, Yellow). I wondered how the other jars got filled up with different colors.
