Bubble Blowers!

Now that was a fun science experiment today!! We learned all about the scientific process through trying to solve the enormous problem of ...WHICH KIND OF BUBBLE GUM WILL BLOW THE BIGGEST BUBBLE?

These kids had an absolute blast trying to blow bubbles of different sizes. And I have to say bubble blowing is much more challenging than it looks! Great learning was happening and it was also funny at the same time because I got to see students laughing as bubble gum covered their noses!

I have to say that I have some top notch bubble blowers in this classroom. I was so pleased to see the kids show their level of scientific understanding about the process of an experiment through smiles and laughter.

Great job crazy kiddos...you are an amazing bunch!
