Real Life Science Experiment

Get Poppin' With Bubbles!

For this real life science project, my partner Cassie and I choose to create a human bubble. Below are some pictures with text and a link as well so you can share the experience with us!

Bubble Experiment

Materials Needed:

Small pool

Hula Hoop

Dish washing liquid

Glycerine

Water

After filling the pool with water, dish washing liquid was added to help make the bubbles.

Glycerine was then added to the mixture.

Here was our first atempt to cover a human with a bubble. As you can see the hula hoop is too small and the bubble is closing in on me, as we pull the hula hoop up.

We then had to upgrade to a bigger hula hoop and a bigger pool so that the experiment would work correctly.

Look! There is a human covered in a bubble.

Welcome to Our Science Lab!

Dear Parents and Guardians:

For the next month we will be blowing the science lab up! We will be focusing on different topics in our science class. For each lesson, the students will be engaged in an experiment that pertains to the lesson. The purpose of these experiments is to give the students hands on experience and to help them understand the lesson better. Provided in the posts below are pictures and step by step directions of some of the experiments that will be completed in class. Feel free to explore! If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me either in the comment box below or at my e-mail address lilfal_23@hotmail.com.

First we want to ask ourselves what is refraction? Refraction is the bending of a wave when it enters a medium where it's speed is different.Refraction is responsible for image formation by lenses and the eye. Refraction makes objects appear different, for example a ruler looks bent when standing in water.
