Once again, scientist extraordinaire, Mr. Steve Spangler, wowed a packed house at the K-2 Science Fair Boot Camp on Wednesday, November 12.  Mrs. Ambron never knows what to expect when Mr. Spangler comes to school, and she and the kids were certainly not disappointed when he (very carefully and with all safety precautions in place) poured hot water into a tub of liquid nitrogen on the stage.

The eruption instantly reached the gym ceiling, leaving it dripping, as the massive white cloud quickly cascaded onto the audience of kids sitting on the floor. Students were shocked and excited as the cloud rolled over their heads.  “It was pitch white! I couldn’t see a thing!” exclaimed one first grade student who couldn’t hide an enormous grin. 

After such a thrilling performance, it was a wonder that everyone was able to make their way to their classrooms to show off their own scientific discoveries.  The classroom science project boards were a big hit with parents and siblings alike.  Thank you to Mr. Spangler and all of our teachers for their significant scientific contributions!
