Looking for an easy, engaging activity for Reading Across America Week (March 2–6, 2026)?
We’ve created two ready-to-use classroom printables:
1. A classroom-size Oobleck recipe inspired by Bartholomew and the Oobleck by Dr. Seuss, plus discussion questions
2. Reading Across America Bingo card to keep students reading all week long
2 cups cornstarch
1 cup water
Green food coloring (optional)
Mix until thick but pourable.
Squeeze it → solid.
Let it drip → liquid.
Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid, meaning it changes behavior based on pressure.
