AIS Nov 21

Hello All

 

Again, I added the last of the folks that said they were not receiving my emails. If you know of someone that goes to this but is not on the list, please forward.

 

Usual arrival/departure guidelines apply. The folks that were to send me the info about their parents have NOT (some children!!)

 

There are FOUR (4) topics scheduled for this week. If necessary, we have a fifth person available as a backup.

 

The topics are:

1.       The Battle of the Beaks-By a Popular scientist-Natural Selection in Darwin's words  (Hope you all know Mr. Darwin!!)-You will be simulating the work of scientists in Galapagos Islands—will include a food fight!!

2.       Simple DC Motors-By a Passionate Scientist-You will build a DC Motor that can be used to run any number of things-You will take home what you build, amaze your friends and family

3.       Optical Illusions- By a diligent Scientist: - You will learn that what you see is always not what you think it is (I hope!!) and you will make something (and take it home)

4.       Science-Is it God or Bad-by a Thinking Scientist-You will work in Groups to decide why/why not/how to/how much money to make/how much to spend/how it will look like (Will make you thin, amaze yourselves and your parents!!)

 

 

Cheers
