This Journey of Mine...

The Science Fair

Today we travelled for an hour to the "Home School Science Fair"! We have worked so hard on our 'Entomology' (The Study of Insects) project. We began last April when we read an article from 'The Old Schoolhouse' Magazine about a homeschooling family who did an extensive project on Entomology! We loved the idea and began collecting bugs until October. We spent the Fall identifying each insect and then we spent the past two weeks creating the Display Board. We also had to make a "Project Workbook" too! My oldest did an amazing job on this project! I was especially proud of her as she presented her project to the judges and was able to speak confidently about what she had learned!

I'll post a picture of our project on the right hand side of my blog!

Blessings,

Mel

Congratulations! It is great to complete a project that took so much time and effort. It is something the kids will treasure and always remember. Good for you for prodding them along. I bet you learned as much as they did!

I'm impressed. Did you catch all of the insects at your house? How did you preserve them so long? How did you mount them. Tell us more about the Homeschool Science fair. Maybe I can start one in my neck of the woods.
