Aim: 


I want to learn how to make plastic from milk.


Materials:

  • Stove or oven or microwave.
  • Measuring cup.
  • measuring spoon.
  • 1 cup of milk.
  • Pot or microwaveable container.
  • White vinegar.
  • Paper towels.
  • Spoon.
  • Mug.
  • Optional food colouring.
  • Glitter or cookie cutters for decoration. 



Method:
  • Pour one cup of milk into a pot or a microwaveable container.
  • Heat it until it is steaming.
  • Add four teaspoons of white vinegar into your milk.
  • Stir the mixture with your spoon.
  • Stack four layers of paper towels so it is safe to get damp.
  • Scoop the curds out with a spoon and place them on the paper towels.
  • Fold the paper towels over the curds and squash them down to absorb the liquid.
  • Knead all of the curds together.
