BARTHOLOMEW AND THE OOBLECK


As part of Dr. Suess "Read Across America" Week we read the story of Bartholomew and the Ooblek and then made some Oobleck! By special request here is the recipe we used: 2 cups cornstarch, 1 cup water and drops of green food coloring. The formula is 2 to 1. (cornstarch to water) The mixture should be thick and sticky. Your child is very excited to make up some Oobleck at home.....have fun!
This is a link to the Oobleck song that a teacher created:
