Science Rocks


 The first thing we did when we got to the science center was going to make candy. We climbed a set 

of stairs then we thought we had to go to the 3rd level so we kept climbing. An IA saw us and said that 

we went to far and to turn around. We climbed back down and we passed Albert Einstein climbing a 

rope. He was just a giant doll wearing Albert Einstein clothes. We walked along and the IA told us to 

turn back around because it was on the 4th floor. We climbed to the 4th floor and we went inside a 

science lab where we were going to make the candy. We all took a seat and Miss Jo (Our sort of 

science teacher) told us how to do it and gave us the right amounts for the candy making process.

The first candy we made was lollipops. When we got our ingredients the sugar mixed with the water 

and corn syrup made a solution because the sugar dissolved in the water. My group made green 

lollipops that were lemon flavored. After we boiled our mixture for 10 minutes (To or more materials 

mixed together as in water, corn syrup, sugar, food coloring and food flavoring.) we put them in 10 

different tins. Everybody in our group would get 2 lollipops. When the lollipops were drying we made 

cotton candy. My group's cotton candy machine wasn't working so we split up. I went with Pooja to a 

different table and I had a lot of cotton candy. I had blue and green cotton candy. When we were done 

with the cotton candy the lollipops were done! They were delicious. I ate both of mine before I got 

home from school! The candy making was really fun and if you go there and you try it to I hope you 

enjoy!



 The exhibits were amazing! They blew me away. They had so many inventions, illusions, and electric 

stuff. My favorite illusion was when you crawl through his doorway that had a hole in one of the walls. If 

you stick your head through the hole there is a box of mirrors and where your head is there is a ring 

around the hole that has fruit on it. There are mirrors that are around the flat part of the table to make it 

look like your head is on a plate. Another one had an object on top of a flat surface that looked real but 

when you try to pick up you can't because it was just a light inside that reflected off the object to make 

it look like it was on top of the flat surface but it really wasn't.



That's all I have to say about the science center. If you ever go there you should try out all the things I 

suggested. If you go there you might want to check out the gift shop to. It has pretty amazing stuff. 

That's all I have for this blog today so you should definitely check out the science center.
