Science Fair Projects!! This should be a fun time of the year for the teacher, students, and families; projects can provide a meaningful learning experience as well as showing students how much fun science can be.
When thinking about a project, remember to focus on a problem or question to be answered, and think about applications to real life. Most importantly, choose a topic that is interesting to you and really makes you stop and think! |
