Tyler won 3rd prize in the second grade science fair!

Tyler loves science. So when the school sent home a paper to sign up for the science fair, he had to do it. We had a lot of fun trying this experiment...it's on Surface tension. Tyler cut out a shape of a boat out of an index card and placed it in water. Then he poured liquid dish soap at the back end of the boat, which made his boat move across the water. It was really cool.
He was judged by some faculty and he WON 3rd PLACE!! He was so surprised and very excited. He gets to compete in the regional science fair...which was today. He didn't win there, but it was a great learning experience. Way to go TY!!!
