Candid Student Reports

The following (emails) were written by members of the Saturday Explorations Club during the first session of the program. Some elements may have been removed for various reasons, but the text that remains is in the student's own words.

I Learned that people who study animals 
have to have a observation test and 
experiments.One thing that we experimented
was that"HOW CAN YOU MAKE WATER COME OUT 
FASTER".We tryed the tornado,sidewinder 
glug,smooth pour,spin,and 2 more tornados.

Today I got to do some water expetiments and 
see how long it took all the water to pour 
out. I learned that for some bottles it took
longer for all the water to pour out, and 
then for other bottles it took a shorter
period of time. I thought it was fun and 
messy.So who ever reads this paragrah should 
try it.

 	Today in Saturday Exploration Club, I 
learned about how sometimes it depends on 
what you're doing to find the solution to a
scientific or mathematic problem. The class 
concluded this by doing a simple experiment 
with water. We filled various sized bottles 
with water and timed how long it took to 
empty them with different poring techniques.
We concluded that the pouring action de-
pended on the person and technique, we also
concluded that when air was being forced in-
to the bottle, it slowed down the pouring 
process.

Today's class was very interesting. We did 
more hands on activities then before.First 
we did an experiment with water. The idea 
was to see how fast the water would clear
out of each bottle. We tried four to five 
different ways to empty the bottle. We later 
recorded all our info on spread sheet.
