Tunstall's Teaching Tidbits

Teaching with Heart and Creativity

Discovery Bottles

 
I have 13 bottles shown above and I am going to show just how and what to do to make yourself a set just like this!  
 I have been known to empty a set of water bottles into a pitcher in order to have empty bottles to work with! My other set is three years old and they were made with recycled water bottles.  They have gotten really thin.  I recommend stronger plastic like these. 
Here are the labels I used for my bottles 
{Click to print}
The first group of bottles I made are for spelling/word work/sight word practice.  They are called word bottles. {Pretty original name if you ask me} Run the words below on cardstock, cut, and put them in your bottle with filler. 

This is one of my word bottles.  The filler here is rice.  Be sure to leave room at the top so the rice will move around freely exposing words here and there for the students to read and record.
I made three different word bottles.  Each with a different filler. — Rice, Salt, and pom poms.

I am going to list out all the items I used for filler, but the sky is the limit!  Just start cleaning out your cupboards, pantry, or craft closet!

Bottle Fillers:
rice
sand
beans
elbow pasta
salt
confetti
glitter
pom poms
karo syrup
water
tissue paper pieces

Here is the recording sheet for the word bottles

Next I made some science discovery bottles and an observation/recording sheet to go with them. I begin the school year with these as my first science workstation.  It is a great way to set expectations and allow students to explore as they get used to workstation time.

This is a static electricity bottle.  I put in small pieces of tissue paper.  Students rub the bottle on their head or clothes and the tissue paper sticks to the side of the bottle where they rubbed it. 
This ocean bottle is 1/2 water 1/4 oil and blue food coloring.  It shows the layer of oil and water and when the students roll it around it makes waves.
This tornado bottle is 1/4 glitter (any color) half water and a little clothes detergent for a nice cloud at the top.
These density bottles have three marbles in the bottom.  Students roll the bottle around and can compare how the marbles move through the mystery liquid.  I also put a few star sequins in there for some fun.  They float through the thick liquid. The filler for Density one is light Karo syrup.  The filler for Density two is shampoo.  {You could also use hair gel, body wash or anything thick but pretty transparent so students can see the marbles moving}

The sink or float bottle is half full of water.  I went through the junk drawer and found some random objects to put in.  I made sure some would sink and some would float.  The magnetic bottle has confetti as my filler but inside are some magnetic objects also found in my junk drawer.  Students move a magnet around the outside of the bottle and are surprised when a paper clip or a screw stick to the side of the bottle and the confetti rolls away.  
 Things like paper clips, legos, tiny toys, screws, nuts, bolts, rubber bands, penny or other small objects.  
Here is the observation sheet for the science bottles
 
Next I made number bottles for math tubs.  These can be both beginner level as well as advanced. You print the number sheet on cardstock, cut, and put the numbers in the bottles with your filler of choice. You can have them record the numbers they find, add, or subtract as your year progresses.  The recording sheet gives an example.  You can also have them compare the numbers for greater than and less than. 


 Click to grab the numbers for both beginner and advanced as well as the number recording sheet.

 Tips: Be sure to hot glue your bottles closed and put a number on the lid of each bottle for easy reference when students write about bottles during the science center. 

There is a lot of information online about discovery bottles!  These shown are what I choose to use for my class.  I hope this helped make it easier for you!

      Wow, these are just fabulous. I have been saving bottles for a while to make word bottles, but those are totally going out the window now in favour of those awesome discovery bottles. I might just have to put the word out there to all my friends to save bottles for me as I am not sure it is possible for one girl to drink that much!

        A clear shoe storage hanger (the kind designed to hang on a door with pockets for indiviual shoes) would be great for storing these. You can use either a child or adult size depending on your bottle size. These are great for storing other items as well. Use large dixie cups in the pockets and wha la an art organizer. They can also be hung in many locations… even over the back of a chair. Just be sure to tie the bottom to the legs

      You can also make color change bottles (primary to secondary) using colored lamp oil and water colored with food coloring. Takes a little adjustment to get the balance right so colors come out accurate. I have been doing these for years. Unfortunately, with the "green" push, bottles have become thinner. Don't use regular poland spring ones. When you purchase bottles for this activity, give them a squeeze and make sure they are a bit thinker, perhaps like the ones she is showing 🙂 Tracie

      Cool idea. But to be a little nit-picky, the density bottles are really demonstrations of viscosity, or resistance to flow, not density. The concept of density is covered in your sink or float bottle.

      Thanks for the ideas! I found the perfect bottles if you want something sturdy but smaller. The milk bottles you get with kid's meals at most fast food places (I've gotten identical ones from Wendy's and Burger King)are very sturdy, and you just have to snip off the plastic sleeve-no goop to try and get off. They are also smooth sided and clear. We don't eat out much so I've only collected five so far but may make a few more stops so I can use some of the ideas you've posted.

        Lisa, as for "flying" dice I had the same difficulty with my first graders.I wanted something small but wanted clear and non-breakable. I immediately thought of my grandson's baby food containers. They are plastic, and rectanglular with a top and one or two dice fit in perfectly. My students shake them then put them down on the desk and read the dots on the dice through the container. They love it!

      1. Names of classmates– could be alphabetized or not
      2. Back to school objects- erasers, pencils, pens, etc.
      3. What we'll learn this year– names of topics or units
      3. People in our school — nurse, teachers, headmaster, librarian etc.

      I saw these and thought I would make one or two to let my kindergartners use. Turns out, they were a HUGE hit. I cannot drink the Gatorade fast enough! Haha Thanks for all the ideas!

      LIke your other commentors (a word?), I love this idea. I came here looking for science stuff, but my own kid is struggling with sight words. And by struggling, I mean refuses to read them. I've decided to choose sight words based on video game words, like, "menu" and "select" so he has the motivation to learn them. This bottle idea will be a perfect way to make it more fun!

      I would love if you shared this post at a week-long linky I'm hosting this week. http://www.stemmom.org/2013/02/stem-themed-linky-party-2.html

      Does anyone have any suggestions how to keep the words from statically clinging to each other and to the bottle? They all get stuck and only a few can be read. I tried laminating the words and not.

    Our daughter Morgan will graduate from Texas A&M U Our daughter Morgan will graduate from Texas A&M University in one month with a Bachelor of Science in Genetics with minors in Neuroscience and Biomedical Science.

We are incredibly grateful for everyone who is and has been a part of her life journey from teachers, friends, and those who just know and love her like we do. 

We are so proud of her hard work and perseverance in college in subject areas that were frankly beyond us. We can’t wait to celebrate on the big day!
