Dr. Kissel’s Science Class by Woo Sung Chong

In Dr. Kissel’s Science Class, to finish the year, we’ve been doing a lot of fun
things! For example, we learned about earthquakes and volcanoes. We studied
plate tectonics and how the Earth’s plates move. Did you know that volcanoes
are often located between plates? We also learned about weather. We are
working on a Weather WebQuest. We are researching different topics, such as
humidity, air masses, and severe weather. We’ll create a PowerPoint or Prezi
presentation with the information. Did you know that a tropical storm is not
a hurricane until the winds reach a speed of 119 kilometers per hour? The
water cycle is something else we learned about. At Camp, kids performed rap
songs with water cycle words like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and
infiltration. Right now our Science Fair is coming up on June 9th. The kids are
performing unique experiments and we’ll share them with our parents at the
Science Fair.
