  • Station One Guide
    Station One Guide KINETIC ENERGY: THE ENERGY OF MOTION POTENTIAL ENERGY: ENERGY OF POSITION & STORED ENERGY MATERIALS * NOT INCLUDED IN KIT 1 Set of Happy/Sad Balls 1 Superball *1 Meter Stick 1 Yo-yo *1 Cup of Hot Water (not boiling) 1 Toy Car *Table with hard, flat surface 1 Tongs Balloons PREPARATION - PART ONE: COLLISIONS Part One Materials: Happy/sad balls, superball, hot water, meter stick, tongs, table with a hard, flat surface. n Study the sample script to learn the experiment. n Practice your presentation. n Examine the equipment. The happy ball is the hard, bouncy ball. The sad ball is the softer ball. n Get hot water from your teacher. The water should be very hot, but not boiling. BE CAREFUL! The water could easily burn you or someone else. Use the tongs to place the sad ball in the hot water and to take it out of the hot water. PROCEDURE - PART ONE: COLLISIONS n Have the students examine the balls while you explain motion as energy. n Drop the balls from a height of 1 meter onto the table while you explain collisions and kinetic and potential energy. n Use the meter stick to measure the rebound of the balls; explain how the potential energy is changed into motion, heat and sound. n Give the sad ball energy by placing it into the hot water, using the tongs. After one minute, remove the ball with the tongs and drop it again, measuring the rebound. Explain that the ball bounces higher when it is hot because it contains more heat energy and cant absorb as much heat energy when it is dropped.

  • Racket Sports Hula Hoop Dancing Going for a Ride
    Hello everybody! I hope that you all are staying healthy and safe. I’ve compiled another list of fun games and activities that you can do alone or with your family. Try them out! They’re tons of fun! -Mr. Walters Racket Sports Yes, tennis and badminton can be games for kids to play alone! They can volley tennis balls off a wall, bounce them on the ground with the racket, or bounce balls and birdies up from a racquet held horizontally. How many can they get in a row? Can they top their personal best? It's actually a great way to hone their hand-eye coordination, which is useful for many other things. ​ Hula Hoop Kids can practice hula hooping indoors or out. Challenge them to count how many revolutions they can do or how long they can keep the hoop spinning without dropping it. Watch a few hooping videos online so your child can see what kinds of tricks are possible, too. For instance, they can try to master the technique of working the hoop from the hips to the neck and back down. Dancing Did you ever hear the expression, "dance like no one's watching"? Many people are nervous about dancing in public, but you can encourage your child to dance alone and work on some confidence-building skills.​ All it takes is music. You can also use games, such as Just Dance or Zumba Classes. These can help kids build a repertoire of moves. Going for a Ride Encouraging your child to go on a little bike or scooter ride is a great option.

  • Siteswap Ben's Guide to Juggling Patterns
    Siteswap Ben’s Benjamin Beever ([email protected]) AD2000 Writings on juggling, for: 1) Jugglers 2) Mathematicians 3) Other curious people ABOUT THE BOOK The scientific understanding of ‘air-juggling’ has improved dramatically over the last 2 decades. This book aims to bring the reader right up to the forefront of current knowledge (or pretty close anyway). There are 3 kinds of people who might be reading this (see cover). As far as possible, I wanted to cater for everyone in the same book. Maybe this would help jugglers to appreciate maths, mathematicians to get into juggling, or even non-juggling, non-mathematicians to develop a favourable perception of the juggling game. In order to fulfil this ambition, I have indicated which parts of the text are aimed at a specific kind of reader. Different fonts have been used to indicate the main intended audience. Everyone (with many exceptions) should be able to understand most of the writings for the curious. However, non-jugglers may not be able to envisage the patterns discussed in the jugglers text, and non-mathematicians may find some of the concepts in the technical sections hard to get their grey matter around. I must point out however, that juggling is a fairly complicated business. It can be very hard to understand what’s going on in a juggling pattern when it’s being juggled in front of you, and it’s not always easy to understand on paper. This book introduces ‘Generalised siteswap’ (GS) notation, and shows how most air-juggling patterns can be formalised within the GS framework.

  • Long Jump Step
    Long Jump You Will Need: -A Start Line- this can be any household object like a piece of rope or a plank of wood. -A Measuring Tape. -A Tester with a Marker - this can be any small, movable object like a stone or a pair of socks How to Prepare: Practice your vertical jump squats to get used to sticking your landing before taking on the Long Jump. Then start with a short forward jump and focus on sticking your landing before trying to jump for distance. How to Set Up and Record Your Result: At the Start Line, stand with your feet about shoulder-width apart, facing forwards with your toes just behind the line. When you’re ready, dip slightly at the knees and jump as far as you can! Try to stick your landing (stumbling forwards is not permitted) and the Tester will place the marker behind whichever heel is closest to the Start Line. The use your measuring equipment to measure the distance from your start line to your marker. Record your results on your sheet. Step ups You Will Need: -A sturdy step (E.g. bottom of the stairs) -A Timer or stop watch. How to Prepare: You could practice doing “fast feet” on the floor and moving your legs quickly. Then give yourself time to practice stepping up and down off of the step slowly to ensure you have your balance and know the size of the step. How to Set Up and Record Your Result: You will need a helper for this activity.
