Some recent fun

Some recent school fun at our house. Science: learning about friction and gravity with a parachute experiment using quarters and homemade plastic parachutes. Which size parachute will make the quarter fall the slowest? Small, medium or large? Our hypothesis ended up being correct!

History: Vesuvius erupting over Pompeii (well, a small Lego version of Pompeii). After this day, 7yo said, "Thanks mom, that was such a good idea for an activity!" Score one for me.
