Bubble Lab
Scientific Method Exploration

10. Brainstorm
What are the steps to the scientific method?

11. You will design an experiment to determine how to make the largest bubble
What are some important things to think about when designing an experiment?

12. Bubble Lab Lab safety- be responsible in the lab
No aprons, goggles or closed toe shoes are necessary
Share the different wands
Get into lab groups based on your row
Discuss experimental design
Make sure you have a control group
Complete the lab and questions

13. Bubble Lab Discussion What problem is this experiment investigating?
What was tested?
What was your control?
What did your data show?
What are some sources of error in this lab?
How could you minimize the error?
What could have caused the inconsistent results?
Was your hypothesis correct or incorrect? Why?

14. Exit Ticket:
Explain how the bubble lab uses all the steps of the scientific method.
