Field Trip To Lawrence Hall of Science

An exciting day was had at the Lawrence Hall of Science. Arrived
overlooking an overcast bay and climbed a life sized whale and an
enlarged DNA model. Walked around the inside and outside of a hands on
museum. Attended two exciting and very informative classes; Volts and
Jolts and ElectricCircuitry. Explored coils, magnets, circuits, wires, current and static electricity
, wires, lamps (light bulbs), batteries, series circuits and parallel
circuits. We drew representations of circuits, created
circuits,mimicked electrons with little green balls, and had a
"shocking" ending to our day atLHS.
