Day 4, 2011

Core classes were interesting today. In Art in Math we learned about fractals. We also drew some organic and geometric fractal using paint and pencils. Today in Motion Coasters we raced our balloon propelled, amazing race cars and learned about Newton's 3rd Law. At Art of Construction, we began making bridges of popsicle sticks. In Murder Mystery we started day 2 of analyzing evidence and got closer to solving the mystery. In chemistry we experimented with the pH table, acids, and bases. In Women in Math today we learned new games and finished our projects

Today Leslie (a counselor) brought a pre-made hovercraft that she let us try out. Since there was almost no friction we were able to glide on it. It was made of household items; they were plywood, a leaf blower, plastic, and the top to a coffee can. It was a very exciting experience.

Bowling tonight was awesome! The 2nd highest scorers tied with 101 points. Ashley (a teacher) got the highest score of 118 points. The air was filled with cheering and clapping (and some screaming). The counselors wore funny socks, but Becca didn't have any so she just painted them on. We left with great memories of a fun night.
