J and R learn at home!

Science Fair

Tonight was our homeschool group's science fair!  We did the senses of sight and hearing for J and R's project.  We procrastinated a bit, but ended up pleased with the final result.  Here are some pics:

 

Their display:

 

 

The eggs in the basket are filled with salt, rice krispies cereal, and dry rice.  The object was to shake the eggs and match them by sound, putting the like ones together.  The flashlight in the front was to shine in your eyes to make your pupils constrict.  There was also a hand mirror for checking that out!

 

Here they are accepting their participation medals:

 

 

And modeling them in front of their project:

 

 

Such a fun time!  And so many wonderful projects... it was just great!  The kids all put a lot of work into the fair to make it a success.

M...Please tell J and R that I am very proud of their work in Science. I am glad that your group recognizes the importance of knowing basic scientific concepts throughout life. I use them every day...GD

About Me

Welcome to our blog! I'm Michelle, wife to John (usually called Dad around these parts, and also in this blog). We have two awesome, silly kids: J, our son, who is 8 1/2, and R, our daughter, who is 6. I'm also a freelance writer who enjoys scrapbooking and reading in my spare time. This blog was started several years ago in Florida, but we moved back to our native Connecticut a year ago this spring. Come see how we spend our days, and what types of things my fingers come up with when I take a few minutes to blog. Enjoy!
