Finishing Up School

Obviously from the title I am super behind on posting.  We have been having kind of a lazy summer.  Which really is the best kind.  School ended well in Hermiston.

The end of school had a show what you know night.  Whitney and Rachel worked together to do a science experiment - an egg drop experiment.

We picked nine different things to put into bags and see if those objects protect the eggs.  The girls made hypotheses first.  Only the rice managed to save the egg, although the cotton balls were close.

Then we made a poster to show the results and the girls took it to school.  I think they were super excited to show off their project.

Move ahead and it was the last day of school.  I spent most of the day at the school going to two award ceremonies, two lunches, and a Kindergarten party.  Here is Whitney with her awards.  Her teacher loved her and Whitney did really well.

Rachel shows off her awards and she had a cute graduation cap.

After her ceremony we could go back to the Kindergarten classroom and see some of their projects.

Saying goodbye to Rachel's teacher was really hard.  Rachel was very sad.  Mrs. Newton was a great happy teacher. 

After the last day we decided to get some ice cream to celebrate.  Of course, my kids love school so it was more in mourning.  But ice cream can help that too.

Anyway, school is over and we are in the thick of summer fun.  Stay tuned for more fun activities.
