peacefulmayhemAs you may remember, Toby had pretty lofty goals for the Science and Inventor's fair.
As we tried to come up with a concrete invention idea, we assessed his ideas, weighing them against my ability to build (nonexistent) and the tight timeline. Toby noted things like 'future' or 'later' on most of them, because we needed more time...not because, say, these things are not yet possible in our universe. I love his notes:
As a result we shifted to conducting an experiment rather than making an invention, and ended up working with flowers and food coloring. Tobias was diligent in his note taking, and I was proud of the care with which he approached creating the poster for the fair. It was really cool to work with him on it.
The fair was today, and Toby presented his material well!
