In Batangas National High School, being in the "Science" classes means that you are in the Honors sections - the best and brightest that BNHS has to offer. Today we spent most of the day visiting with classes in the Science building. This was truly a great day! These students were so inquisitive and eager to learn about the USA, asking us deep and meaningful questions about our country.
One Grade 10 class presented us their award-winning research projects and I was impressed! All of their projects were about something that would benefit the Philippines environmentally and/or economically. These students truly are the future leaders of this country! Their research projects were on: (1) using cacao (a local plant) as fish food, (2) creating biofuel out of local weeds, (3) creating a machine to create burnable bricks (to replace charcoal) out of local scrap materials, and (4) an internet-based watering system. WOW!
The Internet won't let me post pictures right now, but I'll try to update soon! We are heading off on an island adventure tomorrow to Isla Verde!
