Owner, Nick Santos, said that the trash bill was cut by 30 percent and he felt good about not putting all of that into the landfill. One of the ways they did this was by separating trash into compost, recyclables and trash. Here the girls saw first hand a business where they are very creative about how they used their resources. Also, they made “sound sandwiches” that were very loud, out of popsicle sticks and rubber bands.Īfter the Math & Science center they travelled to Cafe Sol for lunch. Experiments included mixing yeast and hydrogen peroxide to make a thermal reaction that was warm, and baking soda and vinegar to make a cold solution. They learned about kinetic, thermal, and other types of energy, too. One group was able to lift 92 pennies and it weighed 244.9 grams. The girls made turbines to use Wind energy to lift a bunch of pennies. At the Math and Science Center they learned about the different types of energy. The day started with a trop to the John McConnell Math & Science Center. In order to get all these activities into one day, the girls and leaders went on a couple of field trips, had a speaker come to them AND worked on group work and craft projects.
