Jaba here's the cafe Zoom emailed to us

by Melissa W of cerville New Jersey it's

called seven layer dip you'll soon see

why it's called seven layer dip here's

what you need a can of refried

beans Taco

sauce sour

cream shredded

lettuce diced

onions diced tomatoes and some shredded

cheddar

cheese put each ingredient in the dish

one at a time so let it make seven

layers okay here's the first layer

refried

beans okay and smooth it out on the

bottom so that it makes a nice solid

layer smells

good okay now comes layer number two of

taco

sauce pour that on there

and spread it

out and there's layer number

two now for layer number

three sour

cream scoop all of it

up and spread that

out spread it all

around now for layer number four which

is the shredded lettuce

sprinkle a nice solid

layer over the sour cream so that it's a

really visible

layer you don't have to put too

much now for the diced onions just pick

up some and sprinkle it over the lettuce

for layer number

five it's very

colorful be great on a

holiday now for the tomatoes

just sprinkle some

over the onions making a nice

layer great and last but not least

shredded cheddar

cheese sprinkle not too much but a

pretty good amount of cheddar cheese so

it makes a very yellow topping cuz it's

the last layer so make it very

colorful and you can substitute

ingredients if there's something you

don't like like you can use

salsa instead of diced tomatoes or

yogurt instead of sour cream it's up to

you and once it's all in there scoop it

up with a tortilla

chip and dig

in M

good we have to

keep does it have to rhyme a poem by

Dominique R of Denver Colorado I asked

ask people does it always have to rhyme

can you just put the Poetry in your

heart then they tell me we always think

of a song when we do words but I tell

them that poetry isn't about the Rhythm

or the beat you just got to bring it

from the heart like Miss Taylor said I

believe that you got to think about life

when you do poems I say you got to think

about the world because if you don't you

won't have anything to say Can you feel

it

hi my name is jam and I'm Jan this is my

brother that's Juan and J and we like

the

cook

FL

break and L I like to eat cook and break

all these things we

do we cook together

and have fun with

it we're going to be cooking breakfast

kids don't never try this

home I heard about the breakfast so I

started rhy so this is how we start up

my RH cook pancakes cook eggs then I

show you something with my saes and

bacon then I show you something with my

eggs and kitchen cuz I like to play and

CU at the same time

breakfast is ready you want to

eat you because everybody like that

breakfast it was

slaming we work together when we cook we

work together when we break we work

together when we flip got to flip do a

back flip of a front flip I show you

something right now if I

can that's it nice pancake

pop we take classes at a place called

the caravel that teaches flipping and

break dancing and our teacher is Eddie

he teaches us good

moves that's

it flipping is a type of rolling and

tumbling if you want to be a good

flipper you have to stretch and get

flexible flipping is a good exercise cuz

you get more flexibility to your body

this is fun bump it

up that's one 2 3 4 there's that

position I said Brak dancing is you

dance but in a different kind of way so

try to do something that looks that

looks like nobody can do like it's hard

to do boom boom boom back boom bo boom

back music is important because you get

the beat to it and then you follow the

beat boom boom

w

earlier on Zoom Alisa Ray and I started

building an invention that squeezes

toothpaste onto a toothbrush it's the

kind of invention rub Goldberg a guy who

invented machines that made simple tasks

very complicated would have designed but

Ru Goldberg never built his inventions

the only Dre cartoons of them we've

actually built

ours our machine is just as complicated

as a Lu Goldberg invention there's 27

steps before the toothpaste squeezes

onto the toothbrush last time we figured

out about half the steps the mouse Falls

onto the mouse trp releasing the ruler

the needle pops the balloon which

releases the fish and the fish Glides

down the string and knocks over this

water bottle the water bottle pulls out

the cork to a funnel of sand and the

sand pours into the plastic cup when the

plastic cup gets heavy it pulls up this

bowl which knocks over a lever with a

ball on it the ball rolls down the tube

and starts a domino chain we also

figured out the steps at the end this

ball rolls down the track and hits these

blocks so that the hammer Falls onto the

toothpaste tube and squeezes toothpaste

onto the

toothbrush but we still needed some more

steps and we needed to connect

everything we thought it would be cool

to have a sneaker swing like a pendulum

but we didn't know what to do so we just

set it up and all the steps started to

fall into place the sneaker is held back

by the tortilla press when it's released

it swings and hits this toy cash

register and releases the mouse which

elasta described before then we kind of

got a little stuck we had to figure out

how we would open the tortilla press we

had a couple of cool things that we

thought we could use to open the

tortilla press but we didn't know

exactly how that would work so we

finally decided to make this heavy cup

of pennies fall and start spinning the

solid spinner cover

the cover will then pull out this piece

of wood and release this rubber band the

rubber band then hits this Target and

the shoe is released from the tortilla

press we wanted to use a rubber deck so

we bounc it on top of the dominoes

Remember The Dominoes when the duck

Falls it pulls out the bolt and the

string releases the lever making the

ball roll down the track and knocking

out these blocks then the hammer Falls

onto the toothpaste and finally squeezes

the toothpaste onto the toothbrush

and we're going to start the whole thing

off with the push of a golf club ready

to test it out yeah all that hard work

here

go yes oh awesome

oh

this rot Goldberg invention took us a

long time to build we made a lot of

modifications and changes as we built it

sometimes it was hard but it turned out

to be a lot of fun and we finally got it

to work try to build your own rot

Goldberg invention and send your designs

to zoom than to email w.s.

remember when Caroline and I

experimented with string

telephones you

today I am good how are

you good

than wow that really

worked well on a trip of across the

country gracian of Wallingford

Connecticut and her friends Ellie Luke

and Evan built four different string

telephones one was made from kite string

and paper

cups another from yarn and paper

cups the third was from foam cups and

Twine the last one was made out of

plastic cups and

yarn when the kids were in California

they tested their string telephones

between cabins they were staying at to

see which one sounded the best they

discovered that the best telephone was

the one made out of paper cups and

yarn they also found out it was

important to keep the string tight when

using the phone that you can hear better

if you keep one ear

plugged and that if you touch the string

or the bottom of the cup it messes up

the sound ws and you can't

hear make your own string telephones and

send your discoveries to zoom
