* Participants could do some work with a microscope interfaced with the XO like Cherry Withers was able to do at the Southern California Linux Expo. They could collaborate on creating science and health lessons to coordinate with curriculum. Cherry could probably write up some instructions about how to get the microscope working with the XO.

* Participants could also so some experiments with Turtle Art With Sensors or Measure[http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Making_XO_sensors] on the XOs, building on what has been done and creating science lessons with it. They would probably need to make the sensors ahead of time. Maybe they could create and test some lesson ideas using the sensors for hands-on real science experiments students could do with their XOs.

* Another crazy idea... I wonder if there is a usb telescope that would connect and work with the XOs. How about an XO star party using the Star Chart Activity on the XOs and a telescope hooked up to one. Wonder if the skies are clear at night in May in Montevideo? Actually this could be fun just with the XOs with the Star Chart Activity and a regular telescope!
