4/10/2017 0 Comments Week 10This week we mostly worked in our project groups. We also talked about matter and conducted an experiment with dry ice, as well as clean, revise our Steinbeck inspired writing, and write about someone else's photo. My project role is a Travel Agent. This week we helped plan out a trip to sunset cliffs. We helped with permission slips and the important details to make sure everything went as planned. In the future we hope to plan more field trips and make sure the calendar is constantly updated. this week in chemistry we played around a bit with dry ice. We learned about phases of matter and how to make he solid dry ice turn into a liquid. When we were playing with it, we found that pressing a coin into the ice would make a high pitched squeak/hiss noise, and I wondered why that was. I asked Andrew and he told me it was because the heat from the coin was causing the ice to turn to gas more rapidly, therefore creating vibrations between the coin and ice that cause the noise. Once the coin got cold enough, the noise stopped and the ice began to get cold and get some frost on it. Below are some photos of what that looked like Last week we were asked to write about a place we love in the style of John Steinbeck. This week, we were asked to revise that. The button below will link you to my piece.
