Science Roadshow

Science Roadshow

On Tuesday a Science Roadshow came to Otaki College to demonstrate some Science and show us what kinds of Science there is. First they explained how friction worked they had a hole slide show and did some tricks to do with friction like when they pulled the cloth off the table and the things on the table stayed on once they had finished that we got to walk around to different places that explained different kinds of Science.

My favourite one was the one were there was a seat and a wheel in front of you and there were two handles of each side you would start of spin the wheel and the move the handles from left to right and you and the chair would move because the wheel moved so fast that it pushed the air out of the way.

Then I went to the bed of nails and I was told to hold onto two bars on ether side and lie down slowly it was so nice. when my turn was over I went to this thing were you had to try fit small boxes into one big box I did not succeed.

We were told to come sit down again and there was a prize draw one of my friends got picked for the prize the got this little plastic propeller. Then last of all the made some Elephant toothpaste which was a mix of different chemicals.
