Final Day - Marbling & Chromotography

 Today the children learnt all about lichens - algae - fungi - and inspired by the colours of nature we worked on two methods.

The first was the marbled paper technique where we attempted to recreate the colours of nature.

And secondly we used the chromatography process - traditionally usually used for testing soil in labs - we created our own chromatograms with markers.
