We use an Alpine School District science program called Mystery Science in 5th grade. This program is a great resource but comes with an added cost if we desire to use all the hands on experiments. These materials are the needed materials for us to be able to do the hands on learning we desire to do with the students. Students spent two years with little hands on science. Technology was great, but they were not mixing chemicals or experimenting with earthworms. In this projects, students will benefit by having the opportunity to mix many chemicals including borax, vinegar, baking soda, baking powder, etc. They need many plastic cups and plates to do the mixing. One experiment, about making it rain with hot and cold water bottles, asks for a specific kind of cup. Here is an example of one of the several experiments. This lesson develops the idea that chemical reactions create new materials that have useful and interesting properties. The Great Goo Experiment is a two-part activity. In Part 1, students experiment by combining different substances and watching for reactions. In Part 2, students mix glue and borax solution in clear plastic bags to observe the reaction, which creates "Mystery Goo."
