Tuesday the 30th of March,The Science Roadshow came to my college, the Science Roadshow is a truck that contains heaps of equipment that is used in scientific experiments. They started setting up all of the science activites and experiments. I think they started setting everything up at about 9. And at 10:30 my class and me went over to the hall and it was our time to do the activites and experiments. We were welcomed into the hall by one of the people running the show, I think her name was Steph. We then sat down and two other people introduced themselves. They said that there names were Mary and Jess.
They both showed us some experiments and facts. I had two favourite things they showed us, the first one I enjoyed the most was the using orange peel on a balloon. How it worked was she had a balloon that was blowen up and tied up. And she was using the “JUICE” from the orange peel and it caused the balloon to pop! My second favourite that Jess and Mary showed us was, a fire tornado. How they did it was she lit a fire using a candle. The candle was on a spinning platform. Jess then used a steel shaped bin, and place it on top of the platform. She then spun the platform and it made a spinning fire tornado. It was really cool!
After they showed us those and a few more, we got to look around at some other fun things, my favourite was this spinning chair thing. What would happen is there is a blanked with black and white stripes, you then sit on the chair in the inside and spin it around. You’re suppose to keep a close eye on one of the black or white lines when you spin, so when you walk out, it’s suppose to be difficult when you walk as you’re suppose to feel dizzy.
