The 4th grade always has an Invention Convention in the spring. Tyler's group decided to invent The Handy Hook. It is to keep your jacket or backpack from falling onto the floor if it accidentally (or a bully does it! as they said :) ) gets bumped and knocked off of the hook. It is a clip that attaches to the hook on the wall. They spent a lot of time drawing up plans, researching, making the poster and figuring out their presentation. It was really fun to look at all the inventions the kids came up with! One of my favorites (besides Tyler's of course!) was this clear plastic curtain that attached to your umbrella. It hung all the way down to the ground, so you had your own little enclosure to stay completely dry in the rain! Some weren't new inventions at all, but hey, they are 10 year olds, right? Anyway, I was pretty impressed with what they came up with. These boys are some good kids, so it was nice to see Tyler become better friends with them.
