Students present “SchoolsAround the World.” PAGE 4

By L. HABERThe Sun

In an attempt to get kids activeand excited about school duringthe mundane months of winter,parents and staff at E.T. HamiltonElementary devised a plan.

Seven years ago, parent BobMarshall brought the idea of awinter science fair to the ParentTeacher Association. After thefirst science fair garnered muchsuccess, the school has continuedthe tradition of overcoming win-ter blues with an annual scienceexperiments fair.

This year, the fair was held onTuesday, Feb. 25. Due to its popu-larity, the fair was held at two dif-ferent times, during the day from1:30 to 3 p.m., and at night from 6to 7 p.m.

“The children have a naturalcuriosity about science,” fifth-grade teacher Judy D’Antoniosaid.

While D’Antonio mentionedthe solidarity among Hamilton

parents, teachers and administra-tion as important in making thescience fair happen year afteryear, she explained how reward-ing it has been, and still is, to seethe kids participate.

“The fair highlights most of the curriculum for one grade oranother … it’s really exciting tosee the kids generate their own

L. HABER/The SunE.T. Hamilton students Isabella Giampetro, Matt Donnelly, Logan Cudeyro and Brian Baker conducted ‘Fantastic Foamy Fountain’ at thisyear’s annual Science Fair on Feb. 25. To make foam fountains, the group used materials such as dish soap, hydrogen peroxide, yeast and hotwater, and water bottles.

The “Schools Around theWorld” presentation was thehighlight of the Voorhees Boardof Education meeting on Feb. 26.Parents and students gathered towatch a colorful overhead displayput together by students ingrades third through fifth, withthe help of teachers.

Teachers described thatVoorhees children as young as 9years of age now have the techno-logical ability to put together QRcodes, as well as movies and Pow-erPoint slideshows, after complet-ing the diversified project aboutschools around the globe.

“There is a movie-maker com-

ponent to this … the students didsome movie making using tech-nology … the students and staff did a great job together,”Moskowitz said.

In addition to research, class-room computers and iPads aidedthe students in completing theirprojects. The students also creat-ed a blog about what theylearned.

Another highlight of the meet-

ing was the board discussionabout snow days. The end date forall Voorhees Township publicschools was set as June 26.

However, more possible snowdays could cause that date tochange. If needed, the board willtake away extended spring breakdays to account for the number of snow days totaling more than ini-tially expected. In associationwith snow days, the boardtouched on the subject of delayedschool openings.

For the past few years, Gov.Christie has been bold andstraightforward with his push

for reform, tax cuts and hope duringhis annual state budget address.

Last week, he was anything but.Instead of painting a rosy picture of

a bright future for New Jersey,Christie stuck to “reality” and seemedto cast a potential dark cloud. If wedon’t do something about pensionssoon, we’ll all be paying for it dearlylater, is what he said.

Christie’s proposed $34.4 billionbudget includes a full payment of $2.25billion for state workers pensions. But

he said that changes he made to thepension plan a few years ago aren’tdoing enough, and said that too muchof New Jersey’s spending goes towardwhat he called “entitlements,” a

phrase his opponents, and union lead-ers, obviously took exception to.

“With our long-term obligationsonly set to increase in the comingyears, the problem will not go away byitself,” he said. “We cannot wish itaway. We cannot make it go away bymagic. What we must do is what wewere sent here to do by the people – tolead and to act decisively again.”

Democrats responded by saying thatthe pension reforms are working justfine, and time will prove that every-

thing is A-OK.We’re not so sure that the system

will simply fix itself, but we also don’tnecessarily agree with Christie thatmore major changes are needed rightnow.

What we do agree with is that more

spending cuts need to be made some-where. The state needs to get out of debt – or at least move closer back toeven – and it needs to do so soon.Local county governments, municipal-ities and school districts need to sharemore services to cut spending withoutcutting quality of services – and thestate needs to provide these entities

with the ability to do so.So what to do? Who really knows?While making more major changesmight be the answer, sitting back anddoing nothing isn’t either.

in our opinion

Mixed messages from the Gov. What are we to thin k of Christie’s budget address?

Your thoughtsWhat are your thoughts on Christie’sannual budget address? Do you agreethat more changes are needed to thestate’s pension plan? Share your thoughtson this, and other topics, through a letterto the editor.

Despite the best ef-forts of the CamdenCounty Department

of Public Works, thishistoric winter hastaken its toll on ourroadways. To combatits effects, CamdenCounty is aggressiveabout locating andrepairing potholesand improving roadway surfaces oncounty maintained roads.

Each year the Freeholder Boardidentifies roadways and bridges thatare in need of improvement across

our County. As liaison to the CamdenCounty Department of Public Works,I am happy to report that work has al-ready begun on an aggressive list of projects this construction season andwe are starting earlier than usual dueto the severity of the winter months.

I consider the resurfacing and re-construction of County roads a toppriority of the Freeholder Board.That is why we have allocated over$3.2 million for this round of im-provement projects alone. Portionsof Lakeland Road (CR 747), SalinaRoad (CR 748) and Woodbury-Turn-ersville Road (CR 621) have been com-pleted. Work will begin soon onCooper Landing Road (CR 627), CoveRoad (CR 616), Hickstown Road (CR688), Kresson-Gibbsborro Road (CR685) and Lower Landing Road(CR681).

While you are out on the road, beon the lookout for our CamdenCounty Pothole Patrol. They havebeen filling as many potholes as theycan throughout our 1,200 lane milesof highway from the Delaware Riverto the county line.

We appreciate the patience and un-derstanding of motorists for any in-convenience they may experiencedue to traffic delays or detours whichwill be posted if necessary during

these improvementprojects. The exacttiming of the road-

work will be deter-mined by the weatherand other factors.

To help us identifyareas in need of im-provement, the Free-holder Board asks foryour assistance in re-

porting road hazards to the CamdenCounty Public Works Hotline (856)566-2980. We need you to become en-gaged in this effort to make CamdenCounty a better place to live and

drive. The Department of PublicWorks Hotline is answered 24 hoursa day, seven days a week and providesdirect access to a significant depart-ment with a core mission of keepingcars on the roads and our regionmoving.

The Camden County Departmentof Public Works is responsible formaintaining over 400 center linemiles of county roadway and 50bridges. They are dedicated to mak-ing our area safer for motorists andpedestrians through county highwayconstruction projects, snow removaland road maintenance, including pot-hole repairs, street sweeping, grasscutting and storm drainage upkeep.The Public Works Department is lo-cated in Lindenwold where person-nel are on call 24 hours a day, 7 days aweek to serve the residents of Cam-den County.

Again, to report concerns on Cam-den County roadways, call our PublicWorks Hotline at (856) 566-2920 orvisit www.camdencounty.com. If youhave any other questions aboutCounty services, please call me at(856) 225-5305 or email me [email protected].

ence, D’Antonio noted positivechanges in students who haveparticipated in the fair.

“Over that span of time, you re-ally see the level of children’sprojects and abilities increasing,”D’Antonio said.

D’Antonio also recognized howmuch of the technology used in

the classroom is based on science.The fair was a rare opportunityfor the children to get hands-onexperience with actual scientificprocesses.

“It promotes creativity too,”science fair organizer and parentMichelle Ferguson said.

Ferguson’s son Benji made ahovercraft for the fair, using a leaf blower, plywood and a showercurtain.

“It wasn’t too expensive tomake,” Benji said.

One especially creative andpopular demonstration at thisyear’s fair was the “FantasticFoamy Fountain.” Group mem-bers Logan Cudeyro, Isabella Gi-

ampetro, Brian Baker and MattDonnelly went the extra mile byincorporating a special groupdance into their experiments. Tomake foam, materials includingdish soap, hydrogen peroxide,yeast and hot water were com-bined to make explosions andfountains using water bottles.

“We went on the Internet andlooked up cool science experi-ments,” Donnelly said.

was a display at the fair that led tofast and furious experiments,which many students enjoyedwatching. Group members ChloeSpence, Jake Younger andMichael Innamorato dazzled on-lookers with their ability to dis-solve Styrofoam pieces in acetoneand water within seconds.

“I went to a birthday partywhere there were science experi-ments … that’s where I got theidea,” Spence said.

Of the percentage of acetone towater mixture used in the experi-

ments, “We’re showing that 4 per-cent of something can make ahuge difference,” Younger said.

One of the most unique dis-plays at the fair included AronYichye’s take on “Aerodynamics.”

Using a custom-built woodenmodel, “Winglets are not on everysingle airplane, but flats andspoilers are on every aircraft,”

Yichye explained.There are other lessons to ex-

tract from the experimentationand processes students gothrough leading up to the fair thatare not only a part of science butalso other avenues of life, such asresilience.

“One lesson is that experi-ments don’t always have to work,”Ferguson said.

A group of parents agreed withFerguson that time managementwas one of the major lessonslearned by students who partici-pated in the fair. Students had tobudget time, as they had to com-

plete research and experimentswhile staying on top of their reg-ular work associated with schooland extracurricular activities.

Next year’s co-chair to organiz-ing the fair, Que-Chi Wong, willspearhead the planning move-ment for parents. For more infor-mation about the fair, please visitwww.voorhees.k12.nj.us.
