some oh it was a beautiful day in happy
lovely
clayland everything was wonderful until
the giant Zumer came to
town he's good but don't worry though it
was just a piece of candy Heather and
Emily R of Indianapolis Indiana sent us
instructions to make this cool candy
called candy clay it's really fun to
make and tastes wicked good you can also
use it to decorate things like cupcakes
you definitely want to wash your hands
before making this Cafe but we already
did first you put
three cups of powdered sugar into a
large mixing
bowl okay next you add 1 14 cup of corn
syrup that looks really sticky yeah then
you add 1/2 teaspoon of salt
do you want to pour that
in half a stick of softened margarine
you should probably cut it up before
putting it in the bowl that way it'll be
easier to stir and knead
later if you're usually not allowed to
use a knife then you should ask an adult
for
help
good then you add 1 teaspoon of van no
extract smells good yes it does split it
around okay then we all
[Music]
up you want to
try going all over this should we need
it with our hands little bit
yeah oh man this is exactly why you
should wash your hands before doing
feel
cool should you like put it on The
Cutting Board yeah The Cutting Board
need it a little
bit
okay oh it helps to use your
knuckles this process usually takes a
long time so we have some that's already
needed
next you want to add a few drops of food
coling to each bow so what do you want
to use H
blue CH orange oh this is an orange it
looks like orange but it's actually
yellow just put like four or five
drops three
four five you want to use red
sh okay very
colorful get your that a little bit you
should use a spoon to start off when
you're mixing in the dye so you don't
get your hands all colored cuz Dy is
really hard to get out this is a really
long process too so we have some that's
already need
glue
yellow and red so you can make your clay
into flowers animals anything you can
imagine but I'm going to make a little
red hat
smell
Ste after you make your candy clay you
want to make sure that you eat it right
away because it hardens very fast trust
me your dentist will thank
you oh yeah
okay yeah a almost too cute to
eat
almost M this is really good
very
good than again Heather and Emily which
is awesome
[Music]
yeah hey Courtney yes Fresco oh how did
the fish feel when it was caught
stealing bait um I don't know guilty
[Music]
slow it down nice and
easy hi I'm Kylie and I'm 11 years old
and I live in Bonita California and I
love to run
tracks I'm on a track team called the
send of flyers and we practice three
times a
week I do three events in track and
field the 100 met Dash where we have to
run 100 m 4X 100 m Reay where four
people do 100 me
each and passive baton and we try to win
as a team against other teams and long
jump where I run down a Runway and jump
as far as I can into a
pit all right there you go nice form
nice form our head coach is coach sard
let's see you start stretching and he's
been my coach for three years and he
gives me lots of tips to improve my
running and there's a lot of cool
strategies with that come down nice and
relaxed what I have to do is train and
get my legs stronger and we're going to
Lunge with either the right leg or the
left leg going forward and then the
coaches help me run faster with
different techniques and stuff pick it
up go all right all right all right
looking good this right to the shoulders
like this okay not up here but here
moving my arm straight up and down makes
my arms go faster which makes my legs go
faster and so I run faster if I move my
arms out to the side I go
slower get up make sure you get up you
can't feel your legs getting stronger um
when you're working out but then when
you run like in um in races and stuff
you notice that you've got some faster
and you've improved get
set when you see the beginning of a race
it looks like some of the kids are
getting a head start it's called a
staggered start and even though it looks
unfair everyone's running the exact same
distances it's because the track shaped
around a curve you have to run further
on the outside Lanes than on the inside
Lanes so to be fair and to run the same
distance Runners have to start at
different
places what I like about long jumping is
that I like to jump really really far
and compete against everybody and I
think it's just really cool that it's a
sport for just jumping
far when I long jump I'm trying to jump
as far as possible nice jump so I need a
special long jump coach and my long jump
coach is coach Williams who helps me do
that if you want to jump far you have to
run your fastest and then you have to
jump off the line as high as you can
without slowing down and when you're in
the air you have to swing your arms
forward to try and stay in the air as
long as
possible when you're going to land lean
forward so you don't fall
backwards what we do for jumping up part
is like kind of like um jumping jacks
when we just try to jump really
high good job let's work on your Landing
now let's get a a real jump all the way
through I feel like I'm in free cuz I'm
in midair and I just like feel like I'm
[Music]
flying my dream for what where I want

Olympics and to be really fast to be the

them hey
Kyle oh hey Shan why is it easier to
understand a dime than a
nickel no clue because it makes more
[Music]
in this game you have to react quickly
or else you'll get slapped how quickly
or slowly you react is called your
reaction time Kelsey of inclined Village
Nevada sent us a way to measure it all
you need is a ruler a chair a friend and
this chart the chart tells you how fast
you react we found it in a book but you
can find a copy at the zoom website okay
here's what to do Courtney could you
please sit on this chair with your arm
resting on the table okay and do you
want me to do the chat yeah sure okay
I'll hold the end of the
ruler so that it dangles in between your
thumb and your pointer finger and your
fingers need to be an inch and a half
apart every time you do this now when I
drop it try to catch it as quickly as
you can I be nervous it's
hard all right so the let's see what you
CAU all right you caught it at 27 CM
according to our chart your reaction
time was about
0.24 seconds which is the same as 24
hunds of a second and that's try it one
so that's really really good we're each
going to do this three times and then
we'll discuss our results so courney you
need to do it two more
times
22 hunds of a
second all right last one okay okay
okay
25 okay so Kyle you're
green 10 10 1400s of a second no let's
try it again
14 16600 for the
seconds nine yeah like
1300 blue I'll do care
okay 14 cm C
1700 about 13
years 18 18 19 hundreds of a
second and it's 18 my P is kind of like
Courtney it's weird because you did it
with your opposite hand I think it
matters what hand you used Courtney and
I are naturally lefties and car used she
doesn't fit and right now right now when
I'm using it it feels like it feels
stiff over here but it feels loose right
here yeah I mean just feels that way I
want to see what happens if you were to
do it with your right
hand that's like 12 16 hundreds of a
second 10 would be 1, 1400 to second
last
one 28 wow those are really close yeah
it's like the last one just totally goes
up on both of yours actually hands are
different but that's just they're just
boundy different this was the fastest
reaction time and it was 13 hunds of a
second that means that my eyes told my
brain the ruler was falling and it sent
that message to my fingers and I caught
the Ruler all in 1300 of a
second and if you look at it right here
Cara your right hand probably would have
been about the same as your left hand if
you hadn't lost it right here on this
last dot so if you look at the reaction
time the fastest reaction time which was
the Green Dots was me the second fastest
which was the blue dots which were the
second reaction time was Cara third
fastest reaction time was Courtney with
the pink dots and if we actually
measured in Cara's right hand and left
hand I already did the blue dots which
was her left hand and her right hand
which is her dominant hand was her her
the yellow dots and she would came in
about third how fast is your reaction
time are older kids faster than younger
kids what about your parents come up
with your own questions test them out
and send them to zoom yeah that was
really cool W that was really
interesting action
hi we're Junior angel from Mount
grock rocks say a lot about the history
of a mountain and we're learning to tell
the different kinds of rocks apart from
each other there are three kinds of
rocks metamorphic ous and
sedimentary metamorphic rock is formed
under extreme heat and press Ignus R is
form in lava cool sary rack are
different layers of different kinds of
rocks that's where you find P people
don't think about rocks too much maybe
