oo



The P.T.A. of PS29 has a great event planned for Earth Day 2010 this Saturday, April 17. The event will include some pretty cool science as well as a screening of "Lavender Lake," the 1998 documentary about the Gowanus Canal directed by Allison Prete.


For a list of the day's event, read on.


April 17 is Super Science Saturday at PS 29!

Celebrating Earth Day and the Backyard Biology of Brooklyn.

Feature Film: Lavender Lake by Allison Prete

The Gowanus is Superfun(d)!

Landscape the canal, smell the goo, magnify the microbes, and learn about the pollution and potential of our local waterways.

Raptors of the Rockaways!

Back from Long Island by popular demand. Take a closer look at hawks, owls, falcons and other feathered princes of the food chain.

Life in the schoolyard!

Plant a seed to take home, create a mini-compost bin, and map the lost habitats under the PS 29 pavement.

Dozens of new activities, including gumdrop engineering, musical glass, fingerprint detection, and mirror optics.

April 17, 12-4pm

Suggested admission $7 per person or $15 per family.

Whoever wins the raffle ticket to Carmelo's is one lucky kid! My kids were fortunate to have him for a science teacher. They learned in elementary school what students are learning in middle school and had fun while doing it. He is a truly a gifted teacher.

And if by chance Carmelo is reading this - the Yankees still suck!
