What I Did On My Summer Vacation (broadcast Friday, August 29th, 2008)
Labor Day weekend is upon us -- and with the coming of Labor Day, students across the country prepare to write an essay for school entitled 'What I Did On My Summer Vacation.' In this segment, Ira asks you to call in with reports on your science-related activities this summer. Maybe you've grown a prize-winning pumpkin, found a fossil, or rewired your house for solar power. Tell us what you did, and how you did it! Teachers, find more information about using Science Friday as a classroom resource in the Kids' Connection.
