Last Thursday was the Keller Science Fair. The boys have been attending Science Club once a week after school for most of the year and have had a really great time learning lots of cool stuff. They both worked on a project for the Fair. Jacob's project was the screaming balloon. He put a hex nut inside a balloon and then blew it up. When he spinned it, it made this awful screaming noise.
Nate's project was on sound waves. The big can sitting on the desk has a piece of plastic over the top with salt on it. When he bangs on the small can in his hand the sound waves that it creates makes the salt move without touching it. Very cool!
After the Fair they ended the year by having a pizza party. All the kids who participated received a medal to wear around their necks. They are already looking forward to being in the science club again next year.

What a fun club, my boys would love that too, but I haven't heard anything about it out here.
Cool projects too, PLEASE don't let him teach my kids the screaming balloon trick.
