Bubble Gum Experiment

The second week of March is celebrated with National Bubble Gum week. The 3rd/4th graders celebrated this even by conducting a bubble gum experiment. We tested 3 types of gum.


Extra was sugar free, Trident had 40% less sugar, and Bubble Yum had a great amount of sugar.

We started off testing each piece to see if it made us thirsty and if we could blow bubbles with each type of gum.

Even Mrs. Mathes and Jesse started off trying hard to blow bubbles with the sugar free gum!

Denis and Angelika found success with the Trident gum.

Jesse enjoyed the Trident gum better than the Extra.
Cole and Ian enjoyed the Bubble Yum cotton candy one the best. The whole class told me that they could blow the best and the biggest bubbles with the sugary gum.
Megan in the process of blowing a bubble. It is a lot of hard work!!
Tristan chewing his gum. I think that he liked chewing the gum more than blowing bubbles!!
