For his final project in Physics, Tyler had to build a boat made from cardboard, plastic wrap & duct tape. After the boat was complete, the people in the class were able to race their boats at a local swimming pool. Tyler & Carlos worked many hours building, wrapping & taping their boat. There were 10 boats that raced. Tyler & Carlos were in the 1st heat to race and finished before the other 3 boats had made it half way across the pool. After everyone had raced their boats, the winners of the other boat races raced. Tyler and Carlos came in 1st overall. My favorite part was when the canoe that Texas & Kade built---sank. So funny!

May 31st was John's last day of work. He's pretty excited. They have LOTS of vacations planned.
That is SO Cool! Logan can't wait to be in Physics in the fall! He has loved Biology and Chemistry, but I think Physics is going to be his favorite. I have to show him this post. Awesome! Great work Tyler! (:
