QUESTION：Dear Marie， Do you have some good suggestions of biology：plant，animal，human science experiments that would work well with teenagers？Scientific methods must go with the experiments．Thanks!                                                               Donna ANSWER：Dear Donna， Marie is not online and I'll help you instead of him．There are a lot of little things that can be done，but do you mean lab experiment or statistical analysis，etc．？Let us know what can be suitable for you teens，and we will do our best to send you some experiments to do．                                                            Best，                                                            Gloria

QUESTION：Dear Gloria， I need lab experiments．The teenage students and I will use data from these experiments to make charts，graphs，tables，etc．and to provide claims and evidence to explain more about the results．Thank you very much．                                                             Donna ANSWER： Hi there， Your best and easiest way is to do some chemistry experiments．Those are very easy and most probably you can do it in the lab and have charts，etc．for you．I do not have any particular one at the top of my head because I do cancer research and it is a bit more difficult than research for teenagers．I think you can look through these and see if you find something useful for you． http://www．siraze．net/chemistry/sezennur/experiments．htm If not，get back to me and Marie，and we'll look more．The good thing about this site is that it has the procedures that you can follow．                                                             Good luck，                                                             Gloria

11．Bushwick is a tough place to grow up．This part of Brooklyn，in New York City，has a lot of crime．More than half of its 100，000residents rely on aid from the government．Only 50% of students at Bushwick High School graduate in four years．
Some people might say，"We should help these poor kids who have so many challenges．"But Malaak Compton-Rock looks at the teens in Bushwick and says，"Go to help kids who have even bigger challenges than you do．"She believes that once young people see the power they have to make things better，they can handle their own problems more easily．So her service group，the Angel Rock Project，took 30Bushwick kids to Soweto，in South Africa，to help poor families there．Soweto is a township outside the city of Johannesburtg．The effort called Journey for Change，aims to show that any kid can change the world．

In Soweto，many parents have died of AIDS，a deadly disease．When that happens，a grandparent or a child must lead the family．The Bushwick volunteers helped such families．They tended vegetable gardens，cared for babies and bought groceries．
"The saddest thing was when we visited an orphanager （孤儿院） and I held a little boy who had been abandoned because he had HIV，the virus that causes AIDS，"says Queen Clyde，12．"It's been good to be on this trip．But what's also important is what we do when it's finished．That's what counts．""I never appreciated what I had until I saw some people who had nothing，"says Sadara Lewis，12．"It's really changed my attitude．I want to make a difference．"
The trip was two weeks long．But the kids，ages 12to 15，will spend all year speaking about their experience，fund-raising and more．
