I know, I know. I said I would be on a mental vacation. And I am. But, I have something to tell you.
Young Matlida, with her very first science project, placed first in the Third Grade and won the school award for Best Verbal Presentation.
The best part is, we didn't even know she had to do a verbal presentation. She did it completely off the cuff. I'm pretty certain the reason why she won the awards is because the project was all her own. She came up with her own experiment, designed the process, developed her hypothesis and how many trials she had to go through in order to validate her data. Her write up was fantastic as well.
Now that we have the hang of this thing, I know that next year she'll get honors and go on to the district competition. And then . . . the world will be ours!
Okay. Back to my mental vacation.
