science fair time

last week was austen's science fair. he and daddy decided to do a really cool project, a levitating train which glided (is that a word??) over the magnetic tracks as the magnets repelled each other. you can see in this image that the "car" is actually floating. it was pretty cool.

daddy helped austen build the box using wood and plexiglass and austen actually did a lot of the cutting and nailing as well as painting.
we had to do a display board and i had austen do all of the typing so i could edit it for him. he arranged and pasted the pages and pictures on the board (with a little help from mom). this is what it looked like when he took it to school. we were very proud of him and for all of his hard work and research he did on this project.


final grade---A+
