Jaba here's the cafe Zoom emailed to us
by Melissa W of cerville New Jersey it's
called seven layer dip you'll soon see
why it's called seven layer dip here's
what you need a can of refried
beans Taco
sauce sour
cream shredded
lettuce diced
onions diced tomatoes and some shredded
cheddar
cheese put each ingredient in the dish
one at a time so let it make seven
layers okay here's the first layer
refried
beans okay and smooth it out on the
bottom so that it makes a nice solid
layer smells
good okay now comes layer number two of
taco
sauce pour that on there
and spread it
out and there's layer number
two now for layer number
three sour
cream scoop all of it
up and spread that
out spread it all
around now for layer number four which
is the shredded lettuce
sprinkle a nice solid
layer over the sour cream so that it's a
really visible
layer you don't have to put too
much now for the diced onions just pick
up some and sprinkle it over the lettuce
for layer number
five it's very
colorful be great on a
holiday now for the tomatoes
just sprinkle some
over the onions making a nice
layer great and last but not least
shredded cheddar
cheese sprinkle not too much but a
pretty good amount of cheddar cheese so
it makes a very yellow topping cuz it's
the last layer so make it very
colorful and you can substitute
ingredients if there's something you
don't like like you can use
salsa instead of diced tomatoes or
yogurt instead of sour cream it's up to
you and once it's all in there scoop it
up with a tortilla
chip and dig

good we have to
keep does it have to rhyme a poem by
Dominique R of Denver Colorado I asked
ask people does it always have to rhyme
can you just put the Poetry in your
heart then they tell me we always think
of a song when we do words but I tell
them that poetry isn't about the Rhythm
or the beat you just got to bring it
from the heart like Miss Taylor said I
believe that you got to think about life
when you do poems I say you got to think
about the world because if you don't you
won't have anything to say Can you feel
it
hi my name is jam and I'm Jan this is my
brother that's Juan and J and we like
the
cook
FL
break and L I like to eat cook and break
all these things we
do we cook together
and have fun with
it we're going to be cooking breakfast
kids don't never try this
home I heard about the breakfast so I
started rhy so this is how we start up
my RH cook pancakes cook eggs then I
show you something with my saes and
bacon then I show you something with my
eggs and kitchen cuz I like to play and
CU at the same time
breakfast is ready you want to
eat you because everybody like that
breakfast it was
slaming we work together when we cook we
work together when we break we work
together when we flip got to flip do a
back flip of a front flip I show you
something right now if I
can that's it nice pancake
pop we take classes at a place called
the caravel that teaches flipping and
break dancing and our teacher is Eddie
he teaches us good
moves that's
it flipping is a type of rolling and
tumbling if you want to be a good
flipper you have to stretch and get
flexible flipping is a good exercise cuz
you get more flexibility to your body
this is fun bump it
up that's one 2 3 4 there's that
position I said Brak dancing is you
dance but in a different kind of way so
try to do something that looks that
looks like nobody can do like it's hard
to do boom boom boom back boom bo boom
back music is important because you get
the beat to it and then you follow the
beat boom boom
w
earlier on Zoom Alisa Ray and I started
building an invention that squeezes
toothpaste onto a toothbrush it's the
kind of invention rub Goldberg a guy who
invented machines that made simple tasks
very complicated would have designed but
Ru Goldberg never built his inventions
the only Dre cartoons of them we've
actually built
ours our machine is just as complicated
as a Lu Goldberg invention there's 27
steps before the toothpaste squeezes
onto the toothbrush last time we figured
out about half the steps the mouse Falls
onto the mouse trp releasing the ruler
the needle pops the balloon which
releases the fish and the fish Glides
down the string and knocks over this
water bottle the water bottle pulls out
the cork to a funnel of sand and the
sand pours into the plastic cup when the
plastic cup gets heavy it pulls up this
bowl which knocks over a lever with a
ball on it the ball rolls down the tube
and starts a domino chain we also
figured out the steps at the end this
ball rolls down the track and hits these
blocks so that the hammer Falls onto the
toothpaste tube and squeezes toothpaste
onto the
toothbrush but we still needed some more
steps and we needed to connect
everything we thought it would be cool
to have a sneaker swing like a pendulum
but we didn't know what to do so we just
set it up and all the steps started to
fall into place the sneaker is held back
by the tortilla press when it's released
it swings and hits this toy cash
register and releases the mouse which
elasta described before then we kind of
got a little stuck we had to figure out
how we would open the tortilla press we
had a couple of cool things that we
thought we could use to open the
tortilla press but we didn't know
exactly how that would work so we
finally decided to make this heavy cup
of pennies fall and start spinning the
solid spinner cover
the cover will then pull out this piece
of wood and release this rubber band the
rubber band then hits this Target and
the shoe is released from the tortilla
press we wanted to use a rubber deck so
we bounc it on top of the dominoes
Remember The Dominoes when the duck
Falls it pulls out the bolt and the
string releases the lever making the
ball roll down the track and knocking
out these blocks then the hammer Falls
onto the toothpaste and finally squeezes
the toothpaste onto the toothbrush
and we're going to start the whole thing
off with the push of a golf club ready
to test it out yeah all that hard work
here
go yes oh awesome
oh
this rot Goldberg invention took us a
long time to build we made a lot of
modifications and changes as we built it
sometimes it was hard but it turned out
to be a lot of fun and we finally got it
to work try to build your own rot
Goldberg invention and send your designs
to zoom than to email w.s.

remember when Caroline and I
experimented with string
telephones you
today I am good how are
you good
than wow that really
worked well on a trip of across the
country gracian of Wallingford
Connecticut and her friends Ellie Luke
and Evan built four different string
telephones one was made from kite string
and paper
cups another from yarn and paper
cups the third was from foam cups and
Twine the last one was made out of
plastic cups and
yarn when the kids were in California
they tested their string telephones
between cabins they were staying at to
see which one sounded the best they
discovered that the best telephone was
the one made out of paper cups and
yarn they also found out it was
important to keep the string tight when
using the phone that you can hear better
if you keep one ear
plugged and that if you touch the string
or the bottom of the cup it messes up
the sound ws and you can't
hear make your own string telephones and
send your discoveries to zoom
