Produced by Solar Spark, this activity allows students to make their own plastic from vinegar and milk. Milk contains casein in a form that is soluble in water. Making the milk acidic by adding vinegar makes the casein insoluble so the milk separates into a solid and a liquid known as curds and whey. Removing the...

In this set of five videos, STEM Learning staff show a range of experiments which can be used by science teachers in the school laboratory or classroom. The videos include tips on how to conduct the experiments and explain what is being demonstrated by each one. The experiments chosen will fascinate and impress...
