This lesson is one example of how you can implement the practice of investigating science through inquiry. In this activity, students explore soap bubbles, what makes good bubble-blowers, and the properties of bubble-making substances. Students pose questions and conduct investigations to find answers.

In this challenge, kids follow the design process to build a boat that can stay afloat and upright while weighed down with a heavy load of pennies.

The phenomenon of a “Playground Slide Bump” helps give an everyday context to students’ learning in a way that is relevant to them. It is likely a familiar context for students either in their school setting or in the playgrounds in their communities. Students will explain the phenomenon in a scientific way by telling a story with vocabulary words.
