2008 Science Olympiad - Myrtle Grove

First things first...

This blog is to track where we are at with the various building projects. I started a Blog for each one below. Depending on which projects you are working on, each of you should make Comments to the blog (or you can get your own ID and Post a brand new entry in this blog). Use this to put comments or questions or suggestions or pictures or links.

For the week of January 14, put the five questions or comments you have about the projects BEFORE we meet again next Tuesday (1/22). Got it?

Happy blogging!
