KITCHEN CHEMISTRY II: Students make a common metal dissolve with vinegar. Then, they discover what happens when red cabbage juice is mixed with an acid and a base. (1st through 6th grade) GIGANTIC BUBBLES: In this outdoor activity, students make gigantic bubbles to discover the characteristics of elastic surface tension, light waves, and air currents. (2nd through 6th grade) ICE CREAM: In a delicious experiment that involves chemistry, states of matter and temperature, students discover how to lower the freezing point of water enough so that their sample of ice cream becomes a solid. (K through 6th grade) HEAT SOLUTIONS: Students discover the nature of heat flow as they experience two weird chemical reactions that absorb or release heat dramatically. (K through 6th grade) BLUE PRINTS: Students coat a sheet of paper with ink that has a chemical reaction when exposed to light, place flowers or leaves on it, and discover what happens when it is placed in the sunlight.

CHEMISTRY I: Students discover a weird goop made from corn starch
that acts as a solid and a liquid. Then, they compare it to a rubbery
material made from Elmer's glue and Boraxo (GAK). (1st through 6th
grade)
