Gravity and Volcanoes

Well, now that we're all caught up, here's what we did today:

Science: We are learning about gravity, so Nick learned to use a digital scale to weigh things and see what gravity's pull is on them.

History: We started building a volcano, my plan was to do a small model volcano now and save the fancy stuff until he was older, but he wanted to do an exploding volcano, so it became a big project. I'm excited, it's coming along really nicely.

This is how we started. The whitish stuff we have is homemade playdough.

Growling like a dinosaur at the volcano. I'm not exactly sure what this accomplishes, but the pictures cute.

The finished volcano model. (finished for today that is)

And just for fun, here he is being a goofball. Can you tell his was in a crazy mood today?
