Circus and Technorama

You know that feeling when you go to a place you haven't been since you were a little child? Well that happened to me when I went with my mum and grandparents to the circus last weekend. It was amazingly cool and I loved the performance and the music played by a live band. But it was odd too because I had a way bigger circus in my memory from when I was a child. Now everything seemed much smaller but also I understood it better :)

On Wednesday we had a Natural Sciences day. We were able to choose between different things we wanted to do. I chose to go to the Technorama in Winterthur. First we visited a Highschool for Sciences and had a presentation, later on we went to this gigantic building full of stuff. Literally, you can nearly find everything there that is somehow linked to science. Just take a peek at the pictures and videos ;)

Making your own battery!

Every Thursday I have three hours of Experimental Natural Sciences. I love this subject, because you really do learn so many things that are actually in our everyday lives.
So this Thursday we built an actual battery. I never really knew what was happening inside these tiny things but now I do!
First we've built batteries in pairs but they did not produce that much power and were just able to power a tiny light. But later on we combined all the batteries of the different groups and we were able to make one of these silly birthday cards that make sounds to play some music for us :D

Otherwise not that much happened this week. We have a lot of schoolwork to do at the moment and there are tests all the time. I am also practising with three of my friends who play brass instruments for maybe a little concert some time :)
