I don't really mind doing PEKA reports. It's kinda fun when you carry out the experiment and it works to your expectations. I like to see how the mixture in my beaker bubbles and the magic of science showing amazing reactions to me. I like Chemistry PEKA best because it is the most exciting and interesting. The experiments are more effective and the products are clearly visible.
I don't mind Biology PEKA too because it's fun. There was one experiment where we had to find the energy value of a food sample. So, we set up all the apparatus and burned the bread. It was in flames and it was so cool! It was burning in this massive fire ball when we put it under the the test tube to calculate the energy value. Check out the picture of Wen Wu, he was with another group so his flame wasn't as massive as ours. Unfortunately, we came out of the lab smelling like burned fish and smoke.....hehe :)
The PEKA report I dislike is Physic because the teacher makes us do it again and again and again and again..... well you get the idea......
Anyway, I love doing PEKA experiments but doing it again and again drives me crazy! Tell me, who likes to do something again and again even if it is a little itty bit not so perfect? The teacher is too much of a perfectionist until the results of the PEKA report must be exactly the same as the answer scheme. Then, when we think we're finally done and our report can be passed up, the teacher will say 'Oh, I forgot to mention something class.......'
And all of us will say "Oh man! Not Again!"
Darn, doing PEKA experiment with this teacher is not an easy thing to do........
