Catching Up--Science Fair

The kids participated in a Science Fair for the first time this year. Our core homeschooling group held the fair with the criteria that the Human Body be the subject. We had a high school science teacher and an elementary school student teacher be our judges. They had to do the experiment, write a paper, create their presentation board, and present their project and answer questions for the judges. It was a great learning experience for them both.


Scout's question was "Does reaction time very between age groups?" I was impressed with the report Scout wrote. His writing has come a long way this year. He got Second Place by a mere 1.5 points.








PinkOne's question was "In optical illusions do different age groups see different things?". She worked really hard on her presentation board with die cut letters, etc. Her written report was pretty impressive too. In fact, she got First Place with a perfect score. Yep, beat the big brother on that one.
