presentations

Today was a great day for me because I just got to sit back, relax, and watch the other groups perform their presentations! I really enjoyed getting to do the experiments, one we did involved soap, yeast, and water and we put it in bottles and it fuzzed over the bottle like a volcano, very cool, especially for young kids! Then we did one where we mixed water and corn starch and it made a really cool clay-like play dough that would be a solid until you held it, then would turn to a liquid! Very cool! We also shot off rockets in the class! One of the groups showed oil spills by having us dip a bird feather in water and oil to see what happens when birds or other animals get oil on them...and it is not good! Washing the penguin looked so painful but it would save his life. Overall, all the groups have been so creative with coming up with fun lessons.
