Soap Inquiry

Mrs. Bombardier had a really neat activity to do with the children today. She asked:

"What happens to a bar of Ivory soap when you put it in the microwave?"


The children had some interesting ideas including"it will melt", "it will crack", and "it will get rotten"

We put it in the microwave and...



It grew and grew! It became fluffy! It was so interesting to touch!

The children explored it in the water table, until it eventually dissolved.
