Our second-grade class was curious about bubbles. We all love to blow bubbles and try to catch them with our hands. It made us wonder, was there something else that could catch a bubble? In our experiment, we tested 5 different materials to identify which one could also be used to catch a bubble. The other materials we used were foil, wax paper, plastic wrap, a plastic spoon, and a wooden stick. We learned that if you want to catch a bubble, the softer the material, the better. We found that the plastic wrap and the foil were the best to use. The wooden stick and the plastic spoon were the least successful, and we would not recommend either of them. Wax paper worked for the majority of people, but not everyone.

Wonderful job on your bubble project! You asked a fun science question and did a great job testing different materials to see which ones could catch a bubble. I liked how you worked together, took turns, and recorded your results clearly. Your project was creative, organized, and showed careful thinking. You learned something interesting about soft materials and bubbles. Keep up the great work exploring science!
This sounds like a fun project and a good example of the scientific method.
