Science Experiments

Right now for science we are studying geology.  To make things more interesting, I found some edible activities for each of the rock types.  Rachael wrote about our experiments:

     Experiments

Two days ago and last Thursday we made science experiments. On Thursday we did volcanoes. The lava was made of corn syrup and red food coloring.

When Kennadee and I put the syrup on our volcano it went on one side because we couldn’t get it on the very top of the volcano.

On Monday we made cookies and had to make them look like sedimentary rocks. When we put them in the oven one of the cookies EXPLODED. The one that exploded was full of red sprinkles. The cookie that exploded was Rielly’s (at least that is what we think).   

Donkey Basketball

The White River FFA sponsored a donkey basketball game as a fundraiser.  Even though the weather was terrible that night, lots of people showed up to participate and watch.  Here is Vic's story about the game:

Donkey Basketball

The donkey basketball was so funny. Most of the people riding the donkeys got bucked off.  I think it was the funniest thing I have ever seen in my whole life. One of the funniest parts was when Malania got bucked off and the donkey drug her. It was hilarious. I can’t wait untill next year when all of the eighth graders ride them. I'll see you next time, donkey basketball!
