lucky dice

The homework project fun has definitely begun at our house this year.  This is Payton's second project he has had to do this year.  First, it was his Famous People Report and now the Science Project.  Payton (with the help of Tim) found this dice idea online and decided it would be fun.  Payton really likes math so a statistical project was perfect for him.  Tim was a great help (with those handy dandy graph charts), but Payton had to do all the typing himself, which took a LONG time.  It was fun to see all the kids science projects and to hear Payton talking about what everyone else did.  Also, he now has a specific brand of popcorn we have to buy at the store, because someone did a project and they said it was the best!  I love when he can bring the things he learns at school home and apply them to our life!  Hey, maybe those third graders can apply what they learned from Payton's project in Vegas...

How cool is that! What a fun project. We tried the SF last year-my dughter wanted to find out which flavor and brand of gum lasted the longest. We bought more gum that I care to admit and we chewed for weeeks until she decided she didn't want to do the SF any more- since it wasn't required I let her stop. I shouldn't have but I was to tired to fight that battle- we still have gum in the cupboard.
