How Cold Does it Have To Be For Bubbles to Freeze?

Brrrr! Its cold out here! Morah Kathy had heard that as the Polar Vortex descended upon us, and that someone had said that when you blow bubbles during the freezing weather, the bubbles will freeze and fall to the ground and crack. Since this is in keeping with out unit on Liquids, Solids and Gases, we bundled up and went outside to test our theory. Unfortunately it was the day after the Polar Vortex descended, so it was only 20 degrees and we observed that the bubbles did not freeze. We concluded that it needs to be colder outside for bubbles to freeze. Next time it is 4 degrees outside, watch out because here we come!

Emma, Celina, Or, Maya, Eliana and Rebecca are all bundled up watching to see if bubbles will freeze. They look a little disappointed that they did not freeze.

Abby looks up to see if the bubbles will freeze.

Or, Celina and everyone outside trying to catch bubbles!

Morah Rivkah (Dahan) braved the cold weather to come outside with us.
