Both Alexa and Landon were required to participate in the school Science Fair this year. Getting two projects ready was quite a lot of work, but both turned out nicely.
Here's Alexa with her project at the Science Fair.
Much to our surprise and joy, Alexa took second place in her grade level. A first, second, and third place was given for each grade level. This qualified her for the District Science Fair.
Here's Landon with his project at the Science Fair.
Here's a picture of Landon's project. He experimented to see if hot air really rises. To test this, he made a giant balloon out of black garbage bags and brought it outside to let the sun heat the air in the balloon. He also tested it by creating a balance with a balloon on each end and then sticking a candle under one of the balloons.
Here's a picture of Alexa's project. She exerimented to see if the diameter of a straw affected how quickly a liquid reached her mouth. To test this, she got three different diameters of tubing that were 15 feet long and got on the roof to perform the experiment.
