♩♩Intro♩♩ Squeaks has been asking when we're going to make slime for a really long time now.
2
And so have lots of our viewers!
3
Well, guess what, Squeaks?
4
Today's the day!
5
It’s gonna be squishy, and smooth, and…probably pretty slimy.
6
And you can make it with a few simple ingredients that you probably already have at home!
7
First, you'll need a bowl, a measuring spoon, a stick or plastic spoon for mixing, a container if you want to store your slime when you're done, and a grown-up to help.
8
Our slime is going to be made out of regular school glue, baking soda, food coloring, and contact solution.
9
The contact solution should have something called boric acid in it, which a lot of them do — you can ask a grown-up to help you make sure.
10
All the ingredients we're using are safe to touch — that's the whole point of slime!
11
But it's not for eating.
12
Now for the fun part: let’s start making some slime!
13
First, pour the glue into the bowl.
14
And I bet you can guess what it’s for!
15
[Squeaks squeaks] That's right!
16
To make it sticky.
17
But maybe not in the way you're expecting.
18
Glue is sticky, but it's still very liquidy.
19
To make slime, we need to make the glue stick to itself so it becomes a big ball of goop we can pull apart and squeeze together.
20
That's what the other ingredients are for!
21
Well, except the food coloring.
22
That's just to make the slime a cool color.
23
So the next thing we're going to do is add one tablespoon of baking soda to the glue.
24
We’ll mix the baking soda and the glue together until it's completely dissolved.
25
Then, we’ll add a few drops of food coloring and mix it together.
26
Keep adding food coloring until you make the color you want!
27
We're using fushcia.
28
Hmmm. I know it's the right /color/, but does this look like finished slime to you, Squeaks?
29
[Squeaks squeaks] Naw, it still looks too liquidy.
30
What do you think will happen when we add the contact solution?
31
Let's see. I’m going to start adding the contact solution one teaspoon at a time so we can really observe what’s happening.
32
Oh wow! It’s really starting to get more goopy!
33
I’m going to add another teaspoon and keep stirring.
34
It looks like the slime is getting even thicker and stickier now.
35
It’s even sticking to itself!
36
That’s because of the way the baking soda and contact solution we added are changing the glue.
37
The little tiny pieces, or molecules, that make up glue are too small for us to see.
38
But if you could, you'd see that they're a lot like tiny chains.
39
At first, the glue was very runny because the chains were all sliding around each other.
40
But the baking soda and contact solution made the chains get all tangled up!
41
That's why the mixture sticks to itself and becomes more like a ball of slime.
42
Once the slime is sticking to itself more than the bowl, you’ll know it’s almost ready!
43
If your slime is still runny, keep slowly adding a little more contact solution to the glue and baking soda mixture.
44
Finally, to get your slime to the perfect level of sliminess, you’ll have to knead it with your hands, either in the bowl or on a surface that's easy to clean.
45
Keep kneading and stretching and even squishing it together until it’s the perfect slime consistency!
46
This slime is so cool!
47
I can form it into a ball and it’s almost solid, but I can also pull it apart and let it drip down.
48
It’s almost like the slime is like a solid and a liquid at the same time!
49
And that's what makes slime so special.
50
Most types of liquids only turn solid when they freeze, like when water freezes into ice.
51
And most types of solids only turn liquid when they melt!
52
But slime is different.
53
When you just leave it alone, it spreads out in the bowl like a liquid.
54
Even though the little chains in the slime are connected to each other, they can still slide around each other enough to flow like a liquid.
55
But when you press it together or pull it apart, the chains get more tangled, and the slime becomes much more like a solid!
56
Just like the oobleck we made one time, remember, Squeaks?
57
[Squeaks squeaks] Yeah!
58
Keep playing around with your slime to see what else you can discover about it!
59
When you’re done, you can put it away in a container so it doesn’t dry out, and just make sure to wash your hands when you're done.
60
But most important of all: have fun!
61
Did you make this slime?
62
What did you learn about it?
63
Ask a grown-up to help you leave a comment below, or send us an email at [email protected].
64
We’ll see you next time here at the Fort!

Why practice speaking with this video?

This video about making slime is not just a fun experiment; it also provides an excellent context for English learners to practice speaking. Engaging with content that involves step-by-step instructions allows learners to mimic the speaker’s language and pronunciation. As you actively participate in this activity, you can use phrases and vocabulary relevant to the context. For example, you might say, "I’m going to pour the glue into the bowl," which directly mimics the instructional style used in the video. Practicing with this type of content helps you improve English pronunciation and gain confidence in speaking, as you can repeat and shadow the speaker’s natural flow.

Grammar & Expressions in Context

In this video, several grammar structures and expressions are utilized effectively. Here are a few key examples to consider:

  • Imperatives: The speaker frequently uses commands like "Pour the glue" and "Add the baking soda." This structure is essential for giving clear instructions, making it a useful form for learners to practice.
  • Future Simple: Phrases like "We’re going to add" and "It’s going to be squishy" indicate future actions, helping learners understand how to express plans or predictions.
  • Comparative Structures: When discussing the slime's characteristics, phrases such as "more goopy" and "thicker and stickier" help illustrate how to compare two different states, which is valuable for descriptions and discussions.

Common Pronunciation Traps

Pronunciation can be challenging, especially when it comes to certain words or phrases from the video. Here are some common traps to watch out for:

  • "Glue": The initial 'g' can sometimes be pronounced too softly; emphasize it to avoid confusion.
  • "Baking soda": The phrase flows quickly, and learners might tend to swallow the words. Try breaking it down: "baking" and "soda." Practicing this will help you articulate clearly.
  • Food coloring: The word "coloring" can be tricky; practice stressing the first syllable: "COL-or-ing."

By focusing on these aspects, you can effectively use this video to enhance your English speaking skills through the method of shadowspeak or using a shadowing site. The more you practice, the more natural it will become, helping you engage more fully in English conversations and experiences.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?

Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
