Science Fair Project

I remember doing these growing up! Never really had the resources to do a great one, but I learned the purpose of it and enjoyed the idea. This year, Caleb made his first science fair project on color-blindness and won 1st place in his class, 2nd place in his entire school! He was so proud of himself!! He put quite a bit of effort into his research, taking interest in this subject because he discovered he is also color-blind (red-green). He tested every single family member using the Ishihara color-blind test online and gathered all his results. Of course, Mommy & Daddy helped some with printing, but we really wanted it to be his effort behind the project. He presented the project in class and even offered to test all his classmates to see if they are color-blind... it turns out that out of the 21 students, 4 of them were color-blind and didn't know it! Even his teacher discovered that day, because of his project, that she is also red-green color-blind!
