[3b Math] Why is the water blue Mr Broome?

In math class, we learned that a deciliter is one-tenth of a litre. We also encountered a handy little mnemonic ditty to remember the Latin prefixes that are the key to the metric system. We sang along to 'King Henry Died Drinking Chocolate Milk' as an introduction to the following prefixes: kilo, hecto, deca, deci, centi, and milli.

We estimated, investigated and spilt a fair amount of water.
 Things got pretty messy, but the scientific vocabulary flowed liked coloured water.
