Simple Halloween science experiment! 🎃 (This one’s *so much* fun.)

When you take two oranges – one peeled and one unpeeled – and drop them into a glass of water, one will sink and one will float. Why? 👇

It has to do with buoyancy. When an object can displace an amount of water that is greater than or equal to its weight, the object will float.

Since the orange peel makes the fruit bigger, it is able to displace more water than its weight. The unpeeled orange easily floats.

But the minute that you remove the peel, the orange gets smaller and suddenly it cannot displace enough water to equal its weight. The peeled orange sinks right to the bottom.

It is the same reason why a gigantic cruise ship can float on water but when you are swimming in a pool and curl into a ball, you sink just like a rock.

👉 Be sure to save this so you remember the science behind it.

👉And tag a friend who would love it too!

Want to try something crazy cool?!



Grab a bag of pumpkin, Frankenstein or ghost marshmallow Peeps and make these exploding geysers!!



You’ll need:



Peeps



A glass container (taller and narrower works the best)



And a microwave.



To start the experiment, squish a desired number of Peeps inside the container. Then, place the jar inside the microwave for 1-2 minutes and WATCH!



Your students will be memorized!!!

This science experiment is hands-down the COOLEST pumpkin in the patch!



Here’s the step-by-step:



Grab a box of Reese’s Pieces.



Sort them by color.



Arrange them on a white plate to make a pumpkin outline.



Pour enough hot tap water in the center of the plate to cover the bottom.



Watch the magic!



Here’s the science behind it:



An object’s state of matter can change. For instance, ice can melt into water and become liquid.



Then, when that liquid gets hot enough, it can evaporate into water vapor and become a gas.



That’s the same kind of change that happens in this science experiment! The sugar coating on the candy melts in the warm water changing it from a solid to a liquid. And because the candy coating is colored, we can watch it all happen before our own eyes!



Save so you can quickly pull up the play-by-play when it’s go-time.

Do you love making learning fun for kids too?!



I swear students learn faster when practice feels more like play than work! And, all 3 of these math centers are as fun as they are powerful.



To help kids learn a skill called number decomposition (knowing different combinations that make the same number), they can:



1 - Spill beans to see that 4 reds + 2 whites = 6 all together and 3 reds + 3 whites = 6 too.



2 - Shake and dump counting chips to discover even more number combinations for 1-10...



3 - And use two towers of unifix cubes to build a variety of 1-10 combos.

There’s nothing quite as sweet as pulling out a math center that’s:



1. easy to differentiate,

2. fun to play AND

3. requires zero prep work.



Am I right?! That’s why I KNOW you’re going to be smitten with this freebie.



To make it easy for you to differentiate, it comes in 3 different versions so you can easily practice subitizing (instantly recognizing) the numbers 1 to 6, adding to 12 OR doubling a number.



And if you’d like to give your sheets a fun pop, print them on colored paper! You can even theme it up by choosing a shade to go with the time of year like orange for Halloween, green and red for Christmas, pink for Valentine’s Day… you can use them ALL yearlong!

Disappearing rainbow! 🌈 This kids’ science experiment is so cool, you’ll want to repeat it over and over again.

Here’s the step-by-step:

1️⃣ Draw a rainbow with black sharpie.

2️⃣ Color the rainbow.

3️⃣ Slide the rainbow into a Ziploc bag and seal it tightly.

4️⃣ Fill a bowl with water.

5️⃣ Dip the rainbow into the water and watch the color magically disappear.

What’s the science behind it? 👇

The color disappears because of REFRACTION – the light changes direction when it moves through the Ziploc bag. It’s the same reason that a straw looks bent when you put it in water.

Super quick science experiment for kids! 🥳 This is proof that inspiring science doesn’t have to be complicated... In fact, you probably have all the supplies you need in your kitchen right this second. 👏

Here’s how to do it…

1️⃣ Pour water into a bowl.

2️⃣ Shake a thin layer of pepper on top.

3️⃣ Dip a toothpick in dish soap.

4️⃣ Place the tip of the toothpick in the center of the bowl and watch the pepper immediately race to the sides just like magic.

5️⃣ Repeat over and over again because it’s so dang fun.

Here’s the science behind it…

The water has surface tension that keeps all of the molecules in their spot. When you touch the surface of the water with the dish soap, it breaks that surface tension, causing the water to quickly pull the pepper away from the soap and toward the outside edge.

👉 Be sure to save this so you can quickly find the step-by-step when you need it!

👉Don’t spend ONE MORE SECOND searching!

Have you been wanting to incorporate more STEM activities into your classroom, but just don’t have the time? ⏰

Have I got a treat for you!💥

60 hands-on task cards to practice measuring and comparing length that only need materials you would already have in your classroom. 

You can’t get much easier and faster than that!🙌

And this amazing Linear Measurement bundle is also kid-approved which means they’ve been a huge hit in classrooms all over!

Especially for teachers like Kathleen, who shared: “My first graders love these task cards! They are easy for them to understand and work independently/with a partner. I like that there are multiple versions, so they can repeat the center without getting bored. Recording sheets are great!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Or Rachel, who discovered that this bundle was, “definitely one of my favorite activities to do when learning about length. We complete the activities in partners which encourages collaboration as well as STEAM.”⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Are you ready to join this EXTREMELY SATISFIED group of teachers?

👉What does a STRUGGLING reader sound like? 

“This is boring.”

“I’ll never be able to do this.”

“Please don’t make me!”

👉And what does a SUCCESSFUL reader sound like?

Like someone whose teacher took The Science of Reading in Action Challenge! 

As in: “I DID IT!!!!” 🥰🥰🥰

It’s quite simply the difference between using research-based, brain-friendly teaching versus outdated techniques that have only been proven to be ineffective.

If you have just one struggling student, you can’t afford NOT to enroll. 

The challenge is easy, fun, and in just 5 days, you’ll have all the tools you need to finally help EVERY child in class.

➡It all starts on Sunday, February 12, so just type CHALLENGE in the comments below and our friendly Plato-Bot will send you the link to enroll!

I can’t wait for you to join us! ✨✨

I dug into 70+ years of reading research for you and created a simple plug and play system that’s already helped hundreds of teachers start implementing the science of reading effortlessly.  🎉

And the best part is that you get to become a SOR expert on your own couch! ☕️

In less than one hour a day – for 5 EXCITING days – you’ll get:

* Daily on-demand videos that make SOR easy to understand
* Dozens of print-and-play centers that will keep your students engaged and motivated all year long
* Cheat sheets and checklists to put what you’re learning into ACTION right away

THE SCIENCE OF READING IN ACTION CHALLENGE

Something big and exciting is happening!

Something HUGE!!!

👉👉We’ve opened our doors for The Science of Reading in Action 5 Day Challenge!

Do you know what that means?

You can finally get your hands on the simple 5-day crash course that’s helped hundreds of teachers start confidently implementing the science of reading in their classrooms.🥳

But the doors are only open for a limited time!

And speaking of time…

Once upon a time, teachers believed in drilling kids with sight word flash cards and mostly focusing on visual memory for reading…

…but it turned out to be a fairytale.

Because 70+ years of research shows that learning to read is an auditory skill.💡

👉👉So, now we know that not only were these techniques NOT effective – they were keeping our kids from living (and reading) happily ever after.

But TODAY’S the perfect day to make struggling readers a thing of the past!

Starting on Sunday, February 12 - and in less than an hour a day - you’ll send your students’ reading results THROUGH THE ROOF!⚡️

Your teaching tool box is about to be overflowing with:

A rock-solid understanding of what the research does (and does not!) tell us about how students learn to read
The 5 most important reading skills and easy ways to teach them
Simple strategies to teach students to read 10x faster
Confidence that not one student is slipping through the cracks

➡️➡️And all you have to do is comment CHALLENGE below, and we’ll send you the link to enroll.

I’m so excited you’re coming with us! ❤️
