How
educators are using the Glenn LTP site
After
seeing the site... I just (re)discovered your site today and
was thrilled to find many activities that we can use in an upcoming
Science Camp for middle-schoolers we will be conducting at Jefferson
Davis Community College in Brewton, Alabama. The camp this year
is called "It IS Rocket Science" and I have been gathering
reference material for weeks. Thanks so much for having so many
useful activities in one site.
How
it all worked out... We just completed our Science
Camp at JDCC this year. We launched model rockets for our last
activity, and the kids were thrilled! This is the first year that
everyone that started the camp completed it, but we only had six
campers. That's OK, because that's all I have the energy for in
these south Alabama summers! Plus I do all of it myself with no
assistance. I just wanted you to know that we did several of the
activities from the rocketry web site and most of them were very
successful. I'm just glad my husband had built model rockets before,
because he ended up assembling them. (Some of these kids had trouble
tying knots!) But we all had a BLAST (literally). Thanks for a
great website!
Sincerely,
Lyn Gill, Ph.D.
