Kindergarten had a blast learning different chemical reactions to see how their mouth "Volcanoes" can explode. 5th grade boys struggled and strategized with the toothpaste but still - once it's been "exploded" and put out there - it can't be taken back. Love tying books to science and discovery!
Starting out strong this third week of school with "My Mouth is a Volcano" by Julie Cook. 4th graders listened to the story read by a classmate and then learned a lesson on the power of words. We need to be careful about what we say and when we say it (hence "volcano mouth".) Even if our words are not mean, if they interrupt others, they can still hurt.
Challenge... squeeze all the toothpaste out of the tube. Give each member of the group a popsicle stick and with a 5 min timer, get all the toothpaste you can back into the tube. They laughed, learned, got frustrated and ended with IT's IMPOSSIBLE! The point made was : words are like this toothpaste - once they come out of your mouth, you cannot take them back. Reading IS STEM and STEAM - just gotta look for the angles 😉. Stay posted for more "Volcano" activities!
