Seven at a Blow

The classic fairy tale has a tailor swatting seven flies at a time, and wearing his accomplishment on his sleeve (which leads to a LOAD of agita, btw).

This student had much more luck blowing bubbles with seven wands at a time!

Exotic Bubble Spotted!

This teacher had success blowing an unusual bubble with her 3D printed bubble wand.

Bubble Fan

Some students cannot, or do not like to, blow bubbles using their breath. For them, offer a hand-pump fan!

Steady, Steady….

We restarted the 3D printing pens-Bubble Wands project again this summer.

Look at this student’s concentration! (With a little encouragement from his amazing para)

More Next Level Wands

From a student at 231K

Next Level Maker

This student made three next-level wands, using the advanced bubble wand template. I cannot see which one is the middle white one.

 

Moon and Star Wand

A teacher made it, but still SO beautiful! (Did not make great bubbles btw)

Kitty Cat Bubble Wand

So cute!

Exotic Bubbles

As the STEM 3D-printing bubble-wand-creation activity continues to percolate throughout the district, students are learning and discovering new things about the nature and physics of bubbles.

For example, regardless of the shape of the wand: square, circular, triangular, or heart-shaped —

— or even butterfly shaped —

the bubbles will be spherical.

But what about double-bubbles? Or triple bubbles? Or raspberry bubbles?

Students discovered that wands with split or multiple openings create exotic bubbles.

Also, bubbles can be stretched between two different wands, as long as there is plenty of bubble juice on each wand.
