STAR SCIENTIST

Last week Payton was our Star Scientist.  Payton cracked us up the entire week reading from her joke book.  Everyone' favorite was....

A woman took her husband to the doctor, complaining the he kept acting like a car.  The doctor said, "Ah, I see the problem.  Your husband has a gas problem!"

Payton and her mother showed us how to make a magnetic liquid using guar gum.  If you chew it, you'll stick to the refrigerator...just kidding!

Enjoy the pictures below.

STAR SCIENTIST


Tyler was our Star Scientist last week.  He read Dr. Seuss's One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish which we used to sharpen our rhyming skills.

Tyler's mom and dad also brought in his 4-wheeler for his engineering object.  All of the kids got a chance to sit on it and see all of the moving parts.  We learned about how the brakes work too. 

Tyler's experiment involved using a battery and a magnet to create a mini spinning motor.  The magnet and battery combine to make a coil into an electromagnet that spins continuously.

Be sure to view the pictures of his week below.

STAR SCIENTIST

AJ was our star scientist last week.  He read Oh, The Places You'll Go! by Dr. Suess. 

AJ also shared his remote control helicopter.  He described all of the working parts and what they do.  He even flew it around the gym.  At one point it seemed as though it was chasing me....hmmmm....anyway....  The helicopter went so high that it almost hit the ceiling! 

AJ also showed us how to make Diet Cola fly through the air, using Mentos (the fresh maker!).  We had actually done this before, but not like this!!  AJ had a special tube with a release pin that ensured all of the mints would fall at the same time.  It was the highest we have ever seen pop fly!  Enjoy the pictures from the week below.
