Bubbles! Variables in an Experiment 5th


The end of the year is here, so we are doing some fun science experiments.  For this simple exercise, every student had a pipe cleaner.  They were able to make any shape by bending it and we used it to blow bubbles.  Our question was: Does the shape of the bubble blower effect the shape of the bubble?

We found that no matter what shape of our stick, the bubbles we blew were all spheres!  It makes for a good class discussion on variables in an experiment.
