In this activity, learners explore materials through paper chromatography.

In this family or group activity, learners conduct a chromatography experiment to reveal the colors that leaves "hide" under their green pigments.

Learners use chromatography to separate and analyze the mixture of pigments in leaves. Use this activity to discuss photosynthesis as well as why leaves change color in autumn.

Learners use filter paper and water to analyze six different markers. They mark the paper with ink, and dip the paper in water. The water travels up the paper and dissolved ink travels with it.

In this activity, learners will discover what colors are in different markers, and may be surprised at the results.

In this activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will observe a physical change.
