A membrane made of gel forms around rock. Then, since there is more water outside than inside the membrane, and so osmosis occurs. Water moves inside of the rock. Becuase there is so much water inside the membrane after a while, the membrane breaks. Then, since the ions are less dense than the water outside, it rises up. The Sodium Silicate in the solution reacts with the rock ions, which causes the solid to form. This is called precipitation.

What is the science behind slime? By Rachel L, 13
We made slime today, but I wanted to know the science behind it.
Glue has something called polyvinyl alcohol, aka PVA. PVA is also found in peel off face masks, and you can make slime with them instead of glue.
Slime is basically polymers, that is molecules made by linking together chains of smaller parts.
Borax dissolved in water has borate ions, which forms Hydrogen bonds with the OH groups in the PVA in the glue. This forms the polymer: slime.
Adding more borax makes the slime harder, and this is because more links are made, and so the polymer is stiffer.
We made slime with different amounts of borax solution, and the more borax solution, the harder the slime was. That is the science behind slime.

Elephant Toothpaste
Experiment Analysis
Elephant toothpaste is given its name because of the giant foam that appears after mixing a few ingredients together! When hydrogen peroxide comes into contact with yeast, it is broken down into water and oxcygen. The oxygen wants to escape, and turns the mixture into large foam.

Self Hygiene Guardians- Glo Germ Experiment
It's crazy to think that only 5% of the people in the entire world wash their hands with the correct steps even though hands are the most common way to spread germs! With this experiment, kids are able to see "germs" under UV light and understand the importance of hand washing and hygiene.

Solar Powered Mini Race
By Hosannah Choi
​
During the NorthWest Innolab Summer Camp, the kids used solar powered miniature cars to race each other! Not only was this a valuable lesson towards future sustainability, but also a fun competition. Solar panels work by absorbing energy from the sun which creates an electrical charge and allows electricity to flow.
The race featured a racing track created from recycled wood and designed by the kids and staff/volunteers! Our main theme for this was the importance of our Earth and environment and how we should be working to save it
