  7. That was really cool, we learned to make these really cool kazoo things which made an awesome buzzing sound. I also liked making my own music, I had a great group of people, we put the right amount of water in some bottles so that when we blew across the top they made perfect notes for Mary had a Little Lamb, and I made an awesome guitar thing out of a tin can and a few rubber bands!

  19. I learnt how to make music with different objects like straws, Bottles and rubber bands.
    I was surprised when using the tuning fork because the vibrations and sound.
    My favourite experiment was making a band with cool stuff. My band was a Kuz-zoo band but it wasn't Kaz-zoos that we used, We used straws.
    I had an awesome time.

  21. I learnt how to do the singing wineglass trick and I showed my family. My brothers were amazed!
    I found out that the sound was higher when there was less water, and lower when there was more.
    It was really cool!
