I am a little glad that we do not have explosive science projects here. The only one dd has had was last year (10th grade) and she had to design a survey, carry it out and draw some conclusions. She did a survey on self-perception and eating disorders.
Oh, dd would probably love one, but I draw the line once in a blue moon. I just gave over half my living room to her sewing obsession, that must be good enough.

That is a cool idea for a project. Very cool.
Explosive science projects are never assigned... it just is, of course, what ODS gravitates towards when given a choice of projects. He is 100% stereotypical boy that way. Which reminds me, science fair season is approaching again. I better dig out my goggles, lol.

Why hide your light under a bushel of bears, I ask you?
To be fair, my definition of what would constitute a reasonable level of literacy and basic grasp of math skills might be different than yours. I would expect basic math, for example, to encompass, at the very least, a good grounding in basic algebra and geometry. I would also hope that basic skills in reading comprehension would mean reaching an intermediate level of literacy (defined as "can perform moderately challenging literacy activities" by the NAAL). Last I looked, only about 60% of all adults had reached that level of literacy.
