School is off to a busy start! The big upcoming project is a Science Fair at our Church. During the fall, we had a family fun day. Part of the festivities was a craft competition. All the children of the Church participated and did an amazing job! The kids did so well, it gave the mom's the idea of a Science Fair. We have about 14 homeschool students that will be submitting a project.
We are so excited about this! While I feel that competition is healthy, I am more excited about the students getting together and showing what they have learned. Even if a student doesn't walk away with the ribbon, they will walk away with experience.
Also, those who are keeping a portfolio for their high school students can put this in the portfolio. This is the kind of stuff colleges are looking for. College admissions personnel want to see if the students have engaged with others and if they have successfully planned and executed a project that is graded and judged by someone other than the parent.
As of now, it looks as if the Science Fair will be held in Late February. I'll be sure to update with my family's progress on building their projects.
