We tried all kinds of designs for the hot air balloon but that failed. We probably weren't patient enough or something. Anyway, we decided to stop that because it stopped being fun.
Now, I've decided we're going to have a science day for all the little kiddies!
I've collected a lot of fun experiments and demonstrations to do with the kids. I figure we'll have the entire Physics class give a presentation of the projects they've been doing and explain a bit of sciency stuff that goes with it. The only real block to that would be getting access to the gym for it and getting enough supplies to make the experiments easy to reproduce so kids can actually get their hands into physics and do some of the experiments themselves.
Right now, I think it'd be best to send children home with a note for their parents, inviting them to bring their children to the science day. After that we would have to try to keep them in groups so we could lead them around to see all of the experiments. They'll see demonstrations, that they might be able to participate in, and perform experiments on their own. We'll probably have to have 3 or 4 people play tour guide for the kids while everyone else demonstrates what they've been working on for physics.
I don't know why I came up with this. I don't even like kids. o.e
