Our homeschool Tapestry of Grace Coop held an Invention Convention as our Unit 1 Celebration. The boys had learned all about the beginning of the Industrial Revolution and some great inventors and now it was time for them to create some inventions of their own. They did a wonderful job! 
We'll start with C2. His invention was called the Remote Tracker. He was tired of us always loosing the remote, so together with his dad, he came up with this invention. He actually used a remote control car to create it!
C1, being the lover of all things sweet decided to create Clementine Soda. He did a great job, it was actually quite good.
He took the ingredients you see below and blended them in my Vita-Mix blender.
The original idea was to then make that mixture into tablets that you could dissolve in seltzer water for the soda. You can see him here trying to put them into a mold. We then put the mold into my food dehydrator to create a capsule, but it didn't work. They completely dried out. So he just poured the mixture into some seltzer instead.
Lastly we have L. He decided to do a report on an inventor. He chose Thomas Jefferson! His presentation was excellent.
It was a wonderful day! We are very proud of the boys for all of their hard work!
