The cat-traption was interesting, but the quiz was quite useful for the test. It provided useful information such as most of the worlds energy comes from the sun.

I think that this is kind of funny. What is it supposed to do? I mean in class we used it to try and figure what kind of energy is used and where, but still its not THAT fun.

That was really funny! I wish they had made it longer though, and the first question didn't make sense. THE CAT STARTED IT!

That was fun. It was interesting. I was bland. Anyways, why make feeding the cat harder to do? I mean, the cat was fat, it should go on a diet. I did think the activity afterwards was sort of interesting, though. It helped me study for our test.

This is really funny. I have a game, and you have to make things like this. I also found an online game. It is the fantastic contraption

The questions for the cat traption were tricky because they asked you a wide range of questions that you really had to think through. You get to see all of the different ways that energy can be transferred. I thought it was fun.

This is kinda boring after a while. All it is, is a movie. I think that they should have it so that you have to build the "Cat-Traption"

This was super cool!!! But what was the purpose of it. It was cool anyway. My favorite part was when the theather ball thing swung around and around. I thought it was funny when the cat came up and ate the food at the end. It was awesome!

I think this is a cool contraption, but it makes no sense. It takes a lot longer to reset it than to just get up and feed the cat. There's a word for it... but I only know the definition. Maybe Ms. Ghazarian might know.
