π§ͺπ Oobleck Fun in 3rd Grade! ππ§ͺ
Mrs. Lovely joined Mr. Kitchenβs 3rd grade class for an awesome STEM lesson β making Oobleck! πβ¨
Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid made from just cornstarch and water. It acts like a liquid when you pour it, but feels solid when you press or squeeze it! Our students had a blast exploring the science of states of matter, pressure, and viscosity in a hands-on, messy, and totally fun way!
Learning science has never been so slippery and squishy! π§¬

Congratulations to our Positivity Project winners for showing the character strength of Humor! πβ¨ These Dragons know how to brighten our days with their quick wit, playful spirit, and positive energy.
