This is from "Energy Transfer" by Dan Tenner a teacher in Seneca School in Queens, NY. The children used the computer to experiment with different elements such as water. The water was monitored for temperatures in different containers at different times. The experiment showed the water when it was hot (red) and the water when it was cold (blue). It even shows the cold water being poured into the hot water.
The children used spreadsheets to record the different temperatures and and times. They also used charts and graphs to do so. This was very helpful in bringing the experiment from the books all the way to the computers.

Over all a good job. Very interesting articles related to computer use in school. This assignment was to look for "... in the United States of schools of teachers using blogs..." Keep up the good work.
