The Plasticene Experiment


Here is a new poem about what happened when we did our plasticene experiment. Watch out for it in the poem book, which comes home for reading each Friday.

Floating and Sinking

I flattened out my plasticine

And set it in the tank

And do you know the cheeky thing

Turned round and slowly sank.

But when I took it out again

And shaped it like a boat

It wasn’t cheeky any more

For it began to float.

(Why did this happen?)
