Friday News

As a Friday thought, I thought I would publish our latest video podcast that we watch called Experiment of the Week with Robert Krampf. Check out his web site, too. This week is experiment 55, "Light As Air". Get out your tape measure, paper, pencil, and a calculator. Have mom or dad watch the video and help you. Comment to this post how many pounds of air you have in your living room or bedroom. Let us know the weight and which room you did the calculations for. Have fun!! Click the link to see the movie.
Light as Air

Again the math is like this:
1. Height of your room X Length of your room X Width of your room = b (b is just some number)
2. b X 1.2 = c (how many ounces of air in the room)
3. c ÷ 16 = d (this is the pounds of air in your room, post this number with the name of the room you measured!!!)
