24、tone to break it? These questions came into my mind one cold winter day. It was too cold to play in the snow, but it was a perfect time to experiment with blowing frozen bubbles.To blow frozen bubbles, I had to wait until the air outside was very cold. For this activity, that meant 10 degrees below
25、0 Fahrenheit or colder. I didnt have the bubble things that come in a bottle, so I used dish-washing soap. Adding a drop of glycerin made the soap work even better.

Leave the bubble alone and it may stay there for a long time.Sometimes I could catch a bubble and hold it until the heat of my hand made it pop.I learned one other thing about blowing frozen bubbles.

The step
43、s may not always be completed in the same order, but the first step is usually observation and asking a question about your observation. For example, you had a sick stomach, and ate a candy bar. An hour later, you observed that you felt much better. Here, you can ask a question, such as, “What makes
44、 a sick stomach feel better?”The second step is to state a possible answer to the question, or a hypothesis, such as “” A good hypothesis includes three things: The explanation for the observations, it is able to be tested, and it will usually predict new outcomes or conclusions.The third step is th
45、e experiment, to test the hypothesis. An experiment is a test which will either challenge or support the hypothesis.

46、rt the hypothesis or it will not. If the results support the hypothesis, a conclusion can be written and you can share it with the rest of the world. If it does not support the hypothesis, you may choose to change the hypothesis or write a new one based on what was learned during the experiment.42Wh
