Thanks a lot, everyone. His projects were Astronomy, It's about time, which involved building a pendulum from scratch and Physics Lab, building a wind turbine to study energy conversion. They were all assigned the subjects, and prepared the models. They were initially judged by the creativity of their project and then had to take a written test on the subject. 2 questions, no multiple choice but actaully written ones.

I really appreciate all your nice comments.

Thanks.

How nice!! My 2nd. son was on the Science Olympiad team, they won the states and flew to Pennsylvania to compete there. I was on a committee to help raise $1500 for that trip. He trully enjoyed it; and it is wonderful to see children take pleasure in those activities. How wonderful he took 3 gold medals...that is awesome!!! You must be so proud.

I am so proud you wouldn't believe it. He told me last night not to feel obligated to tell every one in the world about it. He knows about all his adoptive mothers. I tell them about things I read here and even Emmanuel looks forward on the breakfast table to the jokes posted here. Is like having an extended family.

Thanks all for your nice comments.
