Adam has to do a different project every month at school. His teacher assigns a broad topic, and then they choose some subject within that topic. Each month's project has to be done in a different visual (poster, diorama, mobile, recipe, etc.).
This month the broad topic was "insects" and he chose to do millipedes. He wrote a children's book on millipedes, blending facts in a cute fiction story about a millipede named Sam. We printed it and then "published" it at Kinko's.
By the way, Kinko's is no longer called Kinko's, but Fedex Office.
I still call it Kinko's.
Grace, Josh, and I went down for his presentation. He did great! He's come A LONG way in his presentations. At the beginning of the year, he stared at his 3x5 cards and read so fast you couldn't understand him. He also looked like he was in pain the whole time.
He now looks up and is a lot more animated, and speaks (a little) more slowly.
He still looks like he's slightly in pain while he gives his presentation, but since public speaking IS pain, whattaya do? ;)
This month his topic is "inventions" and he has to make his own invention. He's thrown some ideas around, but hasn't come up with an invention yet.
Can't wait to see what he comes up with!
