I love how much Shayleigh loves science. I liked science as a child too, although my grades in school didn't reflect that. Maybe it's because my teachers were boring. Maybe it's because it never seemed within my reach. Maybe it was just because I would rather be anywhere than stuck in a classroom. I must say that as Shayleigh's teacher, I am really enjoying science- both teaching her and learning along with her.
Last week, her bowling partner invited her to the
Maryland Science Center for some homeschool fun. I wish I could tell you who's theories on what, or what law we experimented with, but honestly, I was too busy enjoying her squeals of excitement to learn the official names of everything. So the following is just pictures of her enjoying her day, with some commentary.
