BOOM!

Why haven't I been blogging? 

 I had (oops, I mean my daughter had) a major volcano project.

             
The 6th graders were broken into groups of 3 & 4.  Each group had to make a homemade volcano.
During the ordeal, we're thinking, "You have got to be kidding me!"
                       
After weeks of work (during science class, after school & at home), the long awaited day arrived!  Time for the explosion.


Some went off wonderfully and sadly, some did not.

  Luckily for us (I mean, them), the volcano went "Boom" with 'Red Lava' and all!

Congrats to Jess' Volcano Team!  Bada-Boom!

Wow!! Cool project!! We just finished a major project too... had to build a 3-D "cell" factory. It was fun but time consuming. Can't wait to see what kind of grade he gets on it. :)
