Tacky tornados.
Science is fun. It is an almost inexhaustible resource when dealing with English classes, for teenagers as well as for kids. I've had the opportunity to verify this fact in my classes, and I have to admit I owe science my better, most profitable and funniest classes ever!!
I've recently started a new lesson about landforms and natural disasters with my secondary kids. We're learning lots (English as well as science facts) and having a great time. Yesterday, I taught them how to create tornados in jars. It's ridiculously easy, and it was really funny how they really got into it.
You just need a jar full of water and some washing up liquid. Just pour some of the washing up liquid into the water, close the jar (tightly) and shake. You'll get an amazing and beautiful tornado.
I swear the glitter and the food colouring was entirely their idea, but I'm glad they asked for it: we got the tackiest and funniest tornados ever.
Enjoy!!
