Today in KS3L, students and staff enjoyed making some slime!

Levi - I liked mixing it together. I made red slime using red food dye.

Alfie - I put glitter in mine and red food dye.

Josh - I stirred a powder in and light blue food colouring. It worked well and is stretchy.

Joe - I like the slime, it is very squishy.

Jamie - I gave my slime to Levi. It was red slime.

Callum - I mixed the glue and black dye.

Amelia - I put glue in, activator in and glitter. Ethan said it’s dead sweaty so I’m not sure if I like it.

Tony - I don’t like slime, you get messy.

Ethan - It’s stretchy and bouncy. I used baking soda and PVA glue and activator. I didn’t use glitter or dye.

Kaleb - I made green slime with blue and gold glitter.

If you would like to try making the slime at home, you can see how we did it below!

**Slime Recipe and Method**

We followed the BBC Blue Peter method to make our slime. The only thing to mention is the contact lens solution needs to have borax / boric acid in it. We bought a slime activator which can be seen in the pictures on our gallery.
