Every time this assignment comes home from school I want to hide under the bed for a week. My oldest son got a D in Science last year because they were required to enter the Science Fair. I didn't really agree with them being forced to do an upper level project, because they didn't get to actually choose, she gave them a list and they had to choose from that. It was such a hassle getting him to work on it and he didn't enjoy it, hence the half hearted project he turned in resulting in a bad letter grade. When science project assignments come home this year I know where I'm going now ;) Oh, the dreaded science project.
