Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We used The Flying Circus of Physics along with Thames and Kosmos Physics Pro kit and lots of MythBusters.
It was great fun!

Thanks for the heads up on MythBusters - I am checking them out to review from our library.
