The first week is over, and after the sudden bombardment of live chats and questions, we’re able to have a rest, have a cuppa and go through all the questions.
We thought we’d find you some of the gems from the week, there were so many, over 1,200 questions asked by over 1,100 registered students – but there were obviously a few stand out questions that made us giggle and some that made us think.
I’m sure we’ve asked this about many annoying noises before how do you drown out the noise of justin bieber?
Bromine bring religion to the table, when they answered is god real if not why is there religion??
Sarah and Austin from Krypton, describe Why aren’t gases as heavy as liquids and solids? to a class of 9 year olds – which meant, even I could understand it.
Will from Strontium gives us tips on memorising the periodic table What is the easy way ti remeber the Periodic Table?
The image is of a live chat in action, from today, although it’s unfortunate we can’t capture the energy and speed of the students.. And scientists!
But we couldn’t end the week without at least one more cat question.. Why do cats feel the need to lick themselves?
Have a good weekend and see you on Monday!
Catch up with the previous posts –Day One, Day Two, Day Three, Day Four
The children really enjoyed the live chat yesterday and were amazed that a scientist likes Manchester United!! Quite funny really but it has provided a great opportunity for the children to realise that scientists are real people who enjoy normal, everyday things.
