Something in the Air
Bubbles, those delicate spheres of wonder, captivate the imagination of budding scientists. Formed when a thin film of soap or detergent traps air within, bubbles showcase the mesmerizing interplay of surface tension and pressure.
Year 7 students embark on a journey of scientific exploration, observing and analysing the intricate formation of bubbles. As they blow bubbles, questions arise: What factors influence their size and longevity? How does temperature affect their stability? Eager minds ponder further experiments, brainstorming methods to manipulate variables and unravel the mysteries of bubbles.
Through keen observation and inquiry, these young scientists lay the foundation for future discoveries, fostering a curiosity that fuels their scientific endeavours.
