Science Fair Projects

The kids had the option to enter into the school Science Fair. Two out of 3 in school decided to take part. Morgan chose to do his experiment on Potato Energy. Daniella listened to Ms. Amy's suggestion on testing the iron content in the sand on Guam - she named her project - MAGIC SAND. Ryan said his class was doing lots of little science experiments in his classroom... so he opted not to do it this year. As you can imagine - these projects take time to research and put presenation boards together - so a small part of me was absolutely and completely fine with only 2 kids presenting!



Morgan is in 5th grade and wrote down his list of all the items he needed and basically did his entire research on his own. He knew exactly what he needed to do and when he was unable to make the light bulb light up... he then tried to see if his connections created a magnet - and it did! Once he had all his supplies - he was very efficient and quick to set up and research. He typed all his findings and within 1 hour he was basically done. I'll admit - I helped with his story board layout! He received a ribbon for participating this year. I'm so proud of him for WANTING to participate! Yeah MO!

Daniella is in 2nd grade and the fun part about her project was traveling to all the different beaches to collect all the sand and test the iron content. Her best friend & next door neighbor - Alexi helped Dani gather all the sand in ziplock baggies and had more fun taking pictures and running along the beaches on Guam. Daniella named her project, did the research and typed out all the info... and again mommy helped with the layout and storyboard. Daniella won 2nd place in her grade level and was thrilled to receive a trophy for her first Science Fair! Congrats, Dani!
