3.label jar 50% glue.

4.prepare 4% borax solution with 2tsp of borax and one cup of warm water.

5.shake till no clumps are left.

6.label jar 4% borax.

7.add both solutions together using different ratios of each into baggies.

8.make graph for data table.

9.squish baggie using your fingers.

10.write down the observations and physical properties on data table.

11.dont dump solutions down drain when finished with experiments throw away.
