Project Fair Day!

What an incredible day! Grace and Emma's project was a total hit! They did such a fabulous job sharing what they learned about Matryoshka dolls and answering questions today! It's amazing the difference a year makes! Last year, at their first project fair, they were quiet and unsure and needed lots of guidance from me. This year, with one project fair under their belts, they were much more confident and needed much less guidance. They received many compliments on their project, as well as on their outfits! 

Both girls really enjoyed seeing everyone else's projects, too. While they initially "went exploring" together, eventually we got into the routine of one exploring, while one stayed to present to the people who stopped by (and then they would switch). It worked well and gave each girl a chance to field questions without the other present. 

I love how much they enjoyed this experience. I love that it gives them a chance to work on their public speaking skills, as well as the skills needed to put together a project like this. We are so grateful to live in a town with a vibrant homeschool community, and we are looking forward to next year's project fair already!

My sincere apologies on the not so fab quality of these pictures. For some reason my phone was just not grooving on the lighting in the auditorium.
