Fun Fantastic Friday- Making Bubbles!

For Fun Fantastic Friday on Friday, we did a science experiment. We made bubbles! Since Jameer was the "Class STARfish", we was the teacher's helper!

First, we had to make sure that we had all the materials we needed!

We documented the materials that we needed!


Next, we followed a recipe to make bubbles!

According to the recipe, we needed 10 cups of water!

We needed 1 cup of dish washing soap!

We stirred it all together in a bowl!

For our experiment, we were to try several different utensils, dip them in the bubble solution that we made, and see if they would make bubbles. The first utensil that we used was a spatula. It made bubbles!

Then, we tried a fly swatter. It made bubbles!

We tried a colander. It made bubbles! We also tried a whisk and comb. They did not make bubbles!

Each student was required to use their worksheet to make a hypothesis about whether each utensil would make bubbles or not. They all did so wonderful making their predictions and recording it on their worksheets. We were so proud of them! They were then required to raise their hands to communicate their choice.

Bubble free time! :-)

Bubbles are so much fun!
