This year Ashton and Gunnar participated in their first science fair...it was fun that they got to do it together, and actually we all kind of did it together. Unfortunately the date of the fair happened to fall on the Friday that we were in Mexico, so we got it all ready before we left and Kelli had to take it in and get it set up with the boys and she got to go walk around and look at all of the projects and stay for the awards.
We were so excited when she messaged me on facebook saying that they got 1st Place! They put it in the 3rd grade category I guess, so it got 1st out of the whole 3rd grade!
Anyway it was a fun project...not something you would typically think of when you think of a science fair, but I loved the idea that Gunnar mostly came up with...
So Lars did all of the actual experimenting with the boys and putting together the graphs and information, then passed it all on to me to put onto the poster boards. I loved doing that part...I told Lars it was like a huge scrapbook page...haha :)
Kelli said it was a little disappointing because Gunnar wasn't able to stay for the awards, for some reason he had to go back to his class instead of going up for his ribbon, but he got it later and he didn't seem to care too much.
I wish we could have been here for it, but Kelli did great and it was neat that they won!
