Slime Science and STEM Bundle | Properties Of Matter | NonNewtonian Fluids

Uncover the science of slime and save in this 3-grade level bundle. Perfect for the Science and STEM Teacher. Slime is a fantastic way to discover the properties of solids and liquids. Includes extensive background information to guide the teacher and students to success. Integrates well for Halloween. Aligned to NGSS.

This bundle includes 3-grade level versions for discovering slime. Each is differentiated for abilities and the Next Generation Science Standards. If this is your first Kimberly Scott Science Journal, we recommend you start with the grade below. The K/1 journal tests with and without borax, includes a STEM exploration, and provides more guidance. The 2nd/3rd-grade version increases the amount of borax, expands to more writing, and includes a further exploration and STEM challenge. The 4th/5th-grade version increases the amount of borax, expands the number of trials, and increases the expectations. It also includes the further exploration and STEM challenge.

By purchasing this bundle, you are SAVING 20% off each individual resource.

By the end of the activities, students will be able to answer the question

Does the amount of borax solution affect the viscosity of slime?

The journal meets The Next Generation Science Standards

Grade K-2 Science and Engineering Practices

2nd Grade matter and Its Interactions

Grade 3-5 Science and Engineering Practices

5th Grade Structure and Properties of Matter

Teachers will appreciate the detailed background information and tips. They will like its’ ease of use, the clear outline of materials, and variety of activities. Choose to perform the whole unit or pick the activity that works best for you. Students will enjoy performing a hands-on activity, getting a little messy, and becoming experts on slime. Students will like how each activity builds on each other to give them the knowledge to help with the final STEM Challenge.
