Students will learn what a soap bubble actually is and about its hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. Students will experiments with different bubble blowing techniques and see what on works best. Students will have a friendly competition where they see what techniques work best to make the biggest soap snake. Next the students will learn how to make a bubble they can hold in their hand and throw in the air.
