1st Science Project

At the end of April, a notice went home with all the 1st graders that a Science Project was due on May 14th. The note said that you had to collect 10 different bugs, then display them in some way (be creative, it said!) and label the bugs. So for 2 weeks we were on the lookout for bugs. Gary Don found several at work. And Kason found some in the backyard. We finally had all our bugs. Now we just needed an idea for how to display them. Gary Don came up with the idea of a bug zapper. Both Kason and I thought it was a great idea. We bought posterboard, construction paper and crazy glue and got to work. It was a group effort! I drew the bug zapper. Kason wrote and glued the labels. Here is Kason as he wrote the labels:
Dad got the task of gluing the bugs on the posterboard. I was not gonna touch that! :) Katie and I stayed way back for that.
Here is the finished project. Kason was so proud!

First Science project accomplished! :)
