SCIENCE LESSONS Hilltop 4th graders recently took part in several activities with their teacher Mr Leu One activity was that they constructed and used solar cookers to cook smores With temperatures in the 30s outdoors some of their cookers reached up to 136 degrees They also learned about electricity in different ways One way was creating series and parallel circuits using wires bulbs switches and batteries Another way was pedaling a bicycle with a generator to light up different electrical items Then with a few electrical kits students were able to create multiple projects The class also had fun learning about static electricity using balloons to pick up different items and a plastic stick to float plastic around the room
