Jeffrey and Jessalyn have been busy at school preparing for the school wide science fair. Jeffrey's project is making batteries using lemons, potatos, a penny, a nail. His project won third place for 4th grade. but honestly, all bias aside, his project was way cooler than the one that got first prize! Plus I have seen it on MythBusters too!
Jessalyn's class did a group project about seeds and they grew plants and worked to figure out what it took to create an ideal place to grow plants. Jessalyn got to bring the plant she grew home with her. Jessalyn brought in a bunch of different kinds of seeds for the display. She brought in Peach seeds, apple seeds, sunflower seeds, a crocus bulb, smaller bird seed, and some wild flower seeds. It made the display very cool.
There were some really neat projects on display. One of them watched bread mold to discover which way it molded fastest. Jessalyn liked the one that used white carnations and placed them in colored water. The flowers drank the colored water and changed the petals to neon colors. There were so many it is hard to think of them all! It was neat neat neat. Afterwards the school had a spaghetti dinner that we all got to enjoy. Yum!
