Making A Bubble Wand and Bubble Mixture ( Instructional Language with thinking skills relating to predicting and testing)

 Year 1,2 and 3 students experimented with simple materials to create a basic design for a bubble wand and also bubble mixture.  They then tested their wands and mixture.

Fabulous strong, large-sized bubbles resulted from their wand designs and mixtures.

After reading the Little Red Hen, these students made their own dough. ( Shared Story, Sequencing, Instructional Language, Measurement & Ingredients)

 






Students from Year 1-4,  listened to the story of the Little Red Hen.  They completed a sequencing activity of events in the story. They learned lots of new words as they followed instructions to make their own dough. 
They measured ingredients and experimented with dyes and made their own dough people. They reviewed body parts and clothing and many instructional verbs. 













They had loads of fun too!
