Last Day of Elementary School

This was our 6th Grade Graduation Day.

Austin, Spencer, and Me!

Caleb is one of my best friends. He also has a very crazy smile.

Zach is funny most of the time. That paper on his head says, "Conner was here!"

Me and Mrs. Hill.

She was my 6th grade teacher. She really likes BYU, which means she is really cool!

Brooke and Becca. They are funny and fun to hang out with.

Jared and Brayden. The neighborhood friends I hang out with.

Jake is just plan crazy!

It was a great year. Now on to bigger and better things in Junior High.

Spring Break

For Spring Break this year we did stuff like....
Climb the biggest net that I've ever seen.

At the same park with the nets. We tried to see who could go the farthest away from the swing, and I won!


Sea World was the bomb! We did lots of stuff like take a simulator to the Arctic, and we saw the Sea Lions act.

The world famous Shamu!! He was awesome, he got a us soaked. He got us so good that Garrett had to dry of in the sun for about a half hour.


As you can see we got soaked.


One of my favorite things about the trip was the ocean. We boogie boarded the whole time there. I even made a cool sand castle

This is my favorite spot on the trip. This place was crazy. It made so that you could lean over a table and not fall of.


We got to go to the Santa Cruze board walk. I was fun and this was a very sick ride!

At the board walk there were crazy benches like this.

At the San Diego Zoo We saw tons of animals. Some were pretty cool but most of them were awesome!!


This is how big my dad is. Just kidding but I thought this guy was very cool. They eat about a full fridge a serving.

Basketball

This basketball season I was the tallest and the biggest out of everyone. So I'm getting a rebound over everyone.



This is me in the air in a weird position.

Valentines dance


This year for sixth grade we did a Valentines dance. Most of the dances wear free dances, but some wear partner dances. So I danced with Brooke Mustaing, Bailey F, Maddi Baker,Hailey Flagyar, and Noelle Spencer. I was fun and really different then I thought it would be like.

Science Project

Science Project

Conner Quiring


The question I am trying to solve for my science project is: Does heat drop the air pressure in a bottle enough to push an egg through the narrow opening?

My hypothesis is: Dropping pressure will not be enough to push the egg through the narrow opening.

The variable is: The air pressure in the bottle when it is cold and when it is hot.

The constants are: The egg and the bottle.

In order to achieve valid results, I will test each of the variables 2 times.

Supplies that I will need: Two eggs, a bottle with a narrow opening, and matches (paper).

My procedure is: Step one, find a bottle with a medium sized mouth. Step two, hard boil the eggs. Step three, place peeled egg on the narrow opening of the bottle. Step four, check if egg falls to the bottom of the bottle. Step five, remove egg put lit matches in the container. Step six, place egg back on opening. Step seven, check to see if the egg is pushed through the container. Step eight was the bottle and then us it again, two to three more times.

My results: When there is no flame in the bottle the egg rest on top of the opening, because the air pressure pushing down on the egg and pushing up on the egg are the same. The matches didn’t work so I burned paper. Once I got a flame in the bottle it did suck the air in the bottle and the air pressure on top of the egg pushed it into the narrow opening of the bottle. Once the flames took some of the air out of the bottle, the air pressure on top was strong enough to push the egg into the bottle.

My conclusion: My hypothesis was wrong because, the air pressure was enough to push the egg into the bottle. The heat of flame sucks the air around it so there is little air inside of the bottle. The air pressure on top of the egg is stronger than the air pressure in the bottle. So it pushes the egg into the bottle.

We started our cruise in Miami Florida. I was really hot there and sunny. Right now we are still docked at Miami.
This was the first night of are cruise. We just got done from our fancy dinner on the cruise.

This is our cruise ship. We are docked at Grand Turk . It was really sandy and the sand was hard sand. We also saw these really weird fish that looked like eels.

This is at dinner and I'm messing around. I think the food their was great.

This is me at Half Moon Cay. I'm going down a sweet and awesome slide.( it was really a 10 foot slide)

We swam too a floaty toy. When ever it flipped over It would be really hard to gite it back up because, the water was about 12 feet deep. I was about 60 feet away from the shore.

This is me and my brother Garrett. We just got done with a cool sand castle. This sand was really soft.

This is my eating shrimp coktel it was really good.

I was singing with my grandpa and family. We where singing Eye of the Tiger.

This is me and my grandparents. We are in NSSAU.

This was the awsome water park. You will never be able to go on all rides in one day.

This is me when we wear going back on to the bout from the last Island.

This is the last night of the cruise and these where are sweet waiters. They wore both from the Phillipeens.

This was my room. I shared it with my brothers and sister.

This was the Mimi aquareium I got really wet at this show.
