Crush Day, Hang Time and Some Greenery


Today was crush your structure day in second block.  The winner below was Will ... absent was his two teammates.  His 34g structure held 72 pounds ... not nearly the most ever but, the most today!  Congrats!

In first block, students did a Hang Time lab.  Students went out in the hall and we measured their vertical jump and them we used a mathematical formula (including the gravity constant) to calculate their hang time ... JJ was the winner with a hang time of .38 seconds.  We started a pHET physics lab using springs and masses.


All the freshmen missed computer programming today for an freshman award day.  8th period computer programming is now 4 days behind my other computer programming class.

Got home in time to take a short walk down to the caves and limestone outcrop in the valley behind our house.  Lots of traffic in and out of the small caves there ... I need to get a camera down there for some pictures.   Lots of greenery on the exposed rocks.
