October 21, 2008

Today we discussed what we need to do for our midterm project. We also discussed our reading guides and the questions that we will be asked on them.

We then did an activity called "The Leaping Egg". We first put a small funnel into a glass. Then we put a hollow ping pong ball into the funnel. After this we blew onto the ball as hard as we could to see if it would "leap" into another glass. It did!! We figured out that when air gets under the ball, it makes the ball jump because of the force of the air. The flowing air creates a current.
