5.1.1.1.1 Explain why evidence, clear communication, accurate record keeping,

replication by others, and openness to scrutiny are essential parts of doing science.
5.1.1.1.2 Recognize that when scientific investigations are replicated they generally
produce the same results, and when results differ significantly, it is important to
investigate what may have caused such differences.
5.1.1.1.3 Understand that different explanations for the same observations usually lead
to making more observations and trying to resolve the differences.
5.1.1.2.2 Identify and collect relevant evidence, make systematic observations and
accurate measurements, and identify variables in a scientific investigation.
5.1.1.2.3 Conduct or critique an experiment, noting when the experiment might not be
fair because some of the things that might change the outcome are not kept the same,
or that the experiment is not repeated enough times to provide valid results.
5.1.3.4.1 Use appropriate tools and techniques in gathering, analyzing and interpreting
data.

Objective

TSW experiment to determine how many drops of glycerin make the best soap solution

Introduce Glycerin and how it helps the bubbles; Students will go back into
partner groups and begin testing solutions with varying amounts of glycerin (same
standard procedure as before but the variable this time is the drops of glycerin,
not the kind of soap). Students will record their data on the sheet.
Evaluatio
n

students will measure the diameter of their bubbles with different amounts of glycerin
and record their measurements on the data sheet; students will save the sheet until they
calculate averages, and then the sheet will be collected
