Distance Learning Approved. This is a great way to get students to use the scientific method at home. The supplies are simple and can easily be modified. The files are a PDF, but come with a pre-created overlay in Easel by TpT. We added text boxes and tips for completing it online. Click "Open in Easel" to get started. It will also allow you to make modifications. It can be added to your Google Classroom as an assignment. Students can also print and complete. A science lab teacher can assign all the grade levels, which allows families to conduct the experiment together. If you don't have Google Classroom, you can send it as an email link with Google accounts. If that is not available, you will need a program like Kami extension to create an online version from the PDF with text boxes. We already did it for you in Easel. You could conduct the experiment as a demo for the students, and then they try it. Get creative! Just remember this activity uses water, and students need to be careful with their devices.

Supplies Needed

Measuring Cups, Pennies, Dish Soap, Water, eyedroppers, Cups, measuring Spoon, Permanent Marker, Paper Towels, other liquids for further exploration, cardstock paper, scissors, tubs of water, and possibly safety goggles and gloves.

Great for the classroom, science fairs, STEM Fairs, science clubs, scout groups, center time, homeschoolers, and anyone wanting to learn the science of water.
