This document provides instructions for making slime as a science fair project. It lists the materials needed: glue, borax powder, water, food coloring. The procedure involves mixing glue and water in one container, and dissolving borax powder in water in a separate container. When the borax solution is added to the glue mixture, the chemicals react and form slime. The slime can be stored in an airtight container and different food coloring can be used to make varied colored slimes.
