We are on Brain Chase Week 2 and the adventure is even better this time around. In addition to an online "writing teacher" that sends you feedback on your different writing samples, they added art and engineering challenges. The art instructor the first week taught them about shading to draw an egg (Aiden worked on his for a long time to get it just right). The engineering instructor asked them to create a "bouncy egg" by experimenting with what happens when you submerge an egg in vinegar. After many squishes ours burst leaving its membrane shell, which the boys thought was pretty cool. The second week he experimented with creating a paper airplane he could control and creating a collage out of old magazines. He was pretty pumped by his final product and very first collage. The clues in the videos he's figured out so far use a special decoder ring that twists. It's pretty cool!
