# Identifying solids that behave like liquids

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/scotforth-st-paul-s-cofe-primary-nursery-school/images/blog/IMG_2568.jpeg)   21 September 2023   [Mrs Mayor](https://scotforth-st-pauls.lancs.sch.uk/blog/author/tmayor)   [Class of 2019](https://scotforth-st-pauls.lancs.sch.uk/blog/category/class-of-2019)

Following on from last weeks lesson about solids and liquids, we have been looking at solids that often behave like liquids. They can be poured and take the shape of the container they are in. We were given the task of identifying each solid by using Easi-Scopes which magnify each particle onto the computer, it was amazing to see them so large. Some of the solids we looked at closely were sand, coffee, salt, sugar, flour, pepper and rice.
