Offline Try one of these explorations:

 Look for a phenomenon in your house or outside.  A phenomenon is something that happens that you can
observe with your senses.  What do you notice?  What do you wonder? 

 Watch a seed grow! Use a garden seed or a dried bean. Place the seed in a plastic baggie with a wet paper
towel covering one side so you can see what happens as it grows OR plant seeds in a garden or pot with soil. 
What do you observe?  What do you wonder?

 Design the best bubbles!  Create a recipe for bubbles using common ingredients, like water, dish soap, corn
syrup, powdered gelatin, glycerin, cornstarch, or other safe materials.  Engineer a bubble wand with plastic
cups, pipe cleaners, straws, yarn, or other materials.  How did you make the biggest or longest-lasting
bubbles?

 Kilo (observe)! Observe the skies during the day and/or night.  Look at the moon, stars, clouds,
sunrise/sunset, and/or weather.  What patterns do you notice?  What predictions can you make?
