Sure, let's organize the steps in the correct order and then I’ll provide some context for your observations.

**Correct Order of Steps:**
1. Fill the tray with enough water to cover the bottom.
2. Add a few drops of dish soap and carefully stir with a straw.
3. Using the straw, blow gently into the water.
4. Record your observations.

### Follow the Steps to Carry Out the Investigation:

1. **Fill the tray with enough water to cover the bottom.** - Ensure you have a shallow layer of water for the next steps.
2. **Add a few drops of dish soap and carefully stir with a straw.** - The soap will create bubbles and potentially change the surface tension of the water.
3. **Using the straw, blow gently into the water.** - This will introduce air into the soapy water, creating bubbles.
4. **Record your observations.** - Take note of what you see during the process and any changes that occur.

### Observations:

When you blow gently into the straw:
- Bubbles will begin to form in the soapy water.
- The bubbles may rise to the surface and could cluster together or pop.
- You might observe larger bubbles forming if you blow gently and continuously.

### Drawing:

You can draw your tray to illustrate what you observed, showing:
- The water level.
- Bubbles forming and rising.
- Any patterns of bubbles that formed as a result of blowing through the straw.

Feel free to get creative with your drawing, focusing on different sizes of bubbles and their distribution throughout the water!
