Last fall, AJ being in gifted/advanced science, was required to complete a science project. The students were given two months of step-by-step to turn in until all completed and due in November 2008. It was optional to particpate in the science fair. I captured some photos of the trail of experimentation (above).
AJ decided he would participate for the experience since science is one of his favorite subjects. He received an "excellent" from the judges and was one of two selected for "2nd place"...which meant he was going to Regionals. Needless to say, he was pleasantly surprised. The dates for regionals is Feb 24-26, 2009, held at Santa Fe Community College in Gainesville, FL. He is very excited but also knows that this will help him with future projects more than winning now. We both look forward to receiving his "Official Abstract and Certification" for his project, from the judging committee.
