Do you need a fascinating demonstration that catches students' attention in class, parents' curiosity at an open house or science night, or can be done at home?

Attach a piece of cheesecloth to the open mouth of a small jar. Pour water into the jar, invert the jar quickly, and you'll see the water does not pour out through the threads of the cheesecloth. What's happening?

Adhesion between the water and threads and cohesion holds the water in the jar. Watch the video for a preview of the activity or use it instead of demonstrating the activity.

Do you need your resources to be available online?

• Import the Word™ documents, the activity video, audio and video recordings, and the PowerPoint™ resource to share in your online classroom.

Do you need to create an independent work packet to send home?

• Print an independent work packet that includes: the How To worksheet, a short text, and essay questions that include suggestions for extensions!

Are you concerned about students understanding the text?

• We created a video that highlights the text to explain the How To worksheet
• The short text, essay questions with extensions are saved in English and Spanish, with videos that read that text to students

What if students don’t have all the supplies?

• Watch a short video showing the activity while it is explained

A PowerPoint™ has several copyright free images that can promote student curiosity as they learn about water and cohesion.

A web page created just my distance learning cohesion products has resources that are kid friendly, easy to read, often with activity videos, and few if any distracting ads.

It's difficult to suggest a duration as it depends on the options you choose. If you choose all four options, this could be four science sessions or more!

I have dozens of products you might consider for distance learning and chemistry.
