One of the pleasures of teaching in preschools, and childcare centres is that, for the most part, young children embrace the notion that art and science are interconnected. In a recent workshop we took a look at the glass sculptures and installations of Dale Chihuly. There is no shortage of science to explore here. Kid Cyber has a great page on glass This activity makes a great introduction to a discussion on the properties of glass and plastic and recycling.
