We will be taking a trip to the Circus tomorrow! So today we learned how the performers are able to balance in the air. Mrs. Yoder showed off her skills by balancing a plastic bird on the tip of her finger, the end of a pencil and even her nose! The students each had a chance to practice balancing the plastic bird before starting our experiment.
The students were then given a clown to decorate and to see if they could balance it on their fingers and noses. Our brilliant scientists quickly figured out that they needed to add weight to the hands of their clowns so they taped a penny to each hand. Then the balancing fun began!
