How can you identify zinc metal? Strange question perhaps? We have dissolved the melt once it cooled after the molten electrolysis of zinc chloride, and now have potentially small flecks of zinc metal on our filter paper. Some of my pupils are not convinced!!! Any ideas?

Reminder - Thursday is take your colander to work day. 11.13 BST on Thursday go outside with your pupils and safely observe partial eclipse by looking at the pattern on the ground as the sun shines through the holes in the colander. 🌞

Girls busy dancing, Dad busy getting immersed in this. Great read, got me thinking again about questioning strategies in science. Questions to make pupils curious!
Me: is that an oxygen molecule?
Pupil: no, it's a house.
