School's science fairs


Jason's school had a science fair last Friday.  In Jason's classroom, there are 32 students in total.  Again, the teachers did a great job to instruct those between 3 to 5 years old wild children to present their science projects.  One and half week before the fair, we practiced with Jason's on his parts at home a couple times everyday.

Project#1 - why regular soda sinks and diet soda floats?
Jason said : Next, I will place a can of regular soda into the water....it sank.

Project#2 - why orange floats and pilled orange sink?
Jason said :  First, I fill a bottle with water.
Jason said : Then I put the orange into the water and watch what happen .....it floats.

Jason did a good job to present his parts.  He was not shy or scared in front of many parents.  The teacher was happy he said the words clearly.  In fact, Jason got a light cold and his voice sounded muffled.

I will post a video on Youtube and publish a new posts later.  I took pictures during the show and around the classroom.  Beside those projects that were presented by students, there were other several projects set up around the classroom for seeing.   The science fair was not only held for Jason's classroom. Other classrooms were scheduled to the different date.  So I am sure that those "projects" were moving around the classrooms for the show.

Oil and water, light refraction. 

Sound

Aluminum corrosion

Egg magic

Xylem tubes












Jason told the teacher there was a drop of color from the previous presented project, and was not wiped clean.








Snow in March



Last Monday 3/17 we got another about 10" snow.  Check out the snow souffle.  One more coming on Tuesday.  Hope it will be the last snow this winter.

Jason - 3Y9M Hongbao??? What is it?

Hongbao to Jason does not mean much.  He thinks money is a ticket.  He knows we need to pay for thing we buy but he does not know the existence of money.  I think the problem could be we used to use credit card to pay for everything at store.

USVI St.John, swimming with a ray

I saw this ray when I went snorkeling with Bill at Maho bay.  It was pretty cool to see it myself.  About snorkeling, I am not able to doing snorkeling more than 30 minutes and get more comfortable to about 12' depth water.  For people like me trained in calm swimming pool, being a bubble maker is the first step in open water. 

I hope next time I will meet a sea turtle.

很愛畫車子

Car carrier.


終於下手

考慮再考慮,比較再比較,(三個月夠囉嗦嗎?)終於我也被 APPLE 綁架。 大家都知道iPad air 的長相,就不用多述。經過 一個星期"試用",除了copy 和paste 不太好用,其他的功能都不錯。尤其是手寫中文,可以讓我練習寫中文,畢竟不是用真的鍵盤,手寫比用輸入法快多了,以後我更新部落格的動力會比前幾個月前積極。
