Dry-Erase Drawing Floats

The drawing lifts off and floats.

Teaching & key ideas

What you do: Draw, let dry, then slowly add water. What students see: The drawing lifts off and floats. Why it works: Dry-erase ink sticks weakly to smooth surfaces, so water can slide underneath. Question to ask: How can a drawing peel off in one piece?
