My sixth grade teacher took me to the junior high science fair to show me some real science displays. It was one of those experiences that stays with you... dissected animals and great poster boards explaining everything. Oh, the good old days.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12006171.post-71630317779051013462011-04-30T08:35:09.248-05:002011-04-30T08:35:09.248-05:00I miss going to the science fairs with the kids. ...I miss going to the science fairs with the kids.

While I never had science fair to deal with, the dreaded "research paper" was probably ten times worse (From an English teacher's perspective, anyway!)<br /><br />Good luck.

MY end ...I cannot imagine being on your end of it. MY end is always a struggle and I'm grateful that this year's science teacher doesn't force kids to do science fair - but lets them participate if they choose to. I wish my son were more interested in doing it, but it's always so stressful - I'm glad of a year off. Next year, new school and mandatory participation I'm sure.Sayrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16350593991157139017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12006171.post-64777885349767964652011-04-28T12:34:36.414-05:002011-04-28T12:34:36.414-05:00Lordy, Lordy.
