By - Anita McKinstry

MATERIALS: Coffee filters, food coloring, scissors

OBJECTIVE: Students will experiment with how colors combine to form new colors, how liquid matter is absorbed into the molecules of a solid.

    1. Discuss the primary colors in the order as they appear in a rainbow. (May also want to discuss molecules and matter depending on how you will use this lesson.)

    2. Give each child a coffee filter (you can bring in the difference between translucent & opaque) Randomly drop food coloring on coffee filter. Ask children to write notes on their observations.

    3. Spray water from a spray bottle on each filter. Ask children to note the changes on their observation sheet. Let dry.
