Today was a awesome day! Why? Because I got to go to the Science Centre! I did so many fun things, but here is one thing that I thought I should share with you! I went into the sound room and went through many fun things, but then I found this hall that lead to something, so I got exited. Vainavi and my mom were with me, so they both came along too!
We walked and walked and walked down this hallway filled with all sorts of different facts. I looked to one side, but then I had to look at the other side, (because there was so much things to see!) so it wasn't a quick walk down the hall. We curved around the hall and went straight and left and right, then finally got to another exhibit! It was a math exhibit! Both me and Vainavi walked around trying to find an interesting place to stop and read a sign about what the creation was and why it was important, but I couldn't find anything that grabbed my intention.
Then I came to this black thing that had a shape of a person. I looked on the front of it and it was a muscle man! I asked my mom if she could take a picture, and she did. I put my hair in front, so I would really look like that was me, instead of a plastic figure. I looked once more on the front of the muscle man, and he had math facts all around his body! (But math facts that people in Middle School do!) I peered over my moms shoulders and I saw my picture. Vainavi was laughing so hard, she almost fell down. I stared cracking up too! Then my mom looked at her watch and told us it was time to go, so we rushed out and that funny part of the day was over.
The thing that I learned.
I learned a lot of things, but one thing I learned was when you put a bowl over a speaker, then you have to hear which bowl lets you hear the sound the loudest. It was between a big metal bowl, a small flat metal bowl, or a big plastic bowl. Before reading this, comment on which one you think it is. I thought that it was the small flat bowl, but it was the big plastic bowl. To me, I thought that was weird, but then I thought, now I know why. The sound waves bounced off of the of the metal bowl, and went through the plastic bowl. I'm not so sure why, but I know that the sound waves bounced off of the metal, instead of the plastic.

I think that you did a great job explaing what you learned, becuase you added a lot of detail. Also you had a great lead in the beginning. Great job, Julia!
ReplyDeleteThat muscleman picture was hilarious! I think that Beatrice is absolutely right. You also made it hooking and fun to read. I'm sure that if someone who hasn't been to the Science Center before, they would learn something new by reading this and understand it 100%. You also focused only on a few highlights instead of babbling on about your day. Phenomenal reflection Julia:)!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job explaining about the day. You made it sound almost exactly like it really was. Like Anushka said, it was also fun to read! What was your favorite exhibit?
ReplyDeleteP.S. I love your picture! :)
Well this of course because I talked about it, and I have a picture.
