I'm Nick and my genius hour project is chemistry/science experiments with Max and Connor. While we are doing the experiments we make them into videos and then we post them onto YouTube (the links will be in the end of the blog). We chose this project because it is fun to do and fun to show people how to do projects at home. The videos show how the experiments work.
Our steps were to find experiments to do. Then we discuss them to see who was bringing what materials. Then we would do the experiment.
We checked websites and YouTube videos to make sure we did the experiments just right. We also got a couple of people outside of our school community such as friends and family to give us ideas.
Our first failure was the unbreakable egg, which was definitely my fault because I dropped the eggs and when they say they are fragile they are very fragile. The second project that we failed was quicksand and we didn’t really get the right supplies for the experiment because it told us two different things.
Our end product is posting the videos to youtube. We still haven’t gotten 100 views on a video.
It was a big success because like I said we got a lot views. We had some problems like having to buy supplies and failing on the experiments. I think next time we will go through the directions a couple of times more to make sure we have exactly what we need. We will be keeping the same project for the next round of genius hour but some videos will be a little different.
