Invention Convention

Originally scheduled for Sept. 10th, however due to Hurricane Ike school was cancelled and the convention rescheduled for Sept. 17th. Good ole Ike!



The 5th and 6th graders at our school welcomed us to their "Invention Convention." Thomas' partner was Ruben. The two invented a double sided clothes pin. They made them in two different sizes and as you can see their teacher has used them to display papers in her room. Some of the other inventions are noted as well. Adam and Matthew converted a koozie to a pen holder/water bottle holder so you could write/drink while Grace and Sierra invented the "i bike" abling you to ride and listen to your ipod! Great job inventors!
We had refreshments (that was Laynie's favorite part) and then we made our long journey home.
