How to Create a Science Fair Project

We can show you how to integrate science fairs into your curriculum! Whether you want your student to start with a simple project or create an award winner, we will show you how. Dates for 2 workshops are listed below and 3 more are in the planning phase.

Workshop topics include: The Benefits of a Science Fair Project, The Reluctant Science Student, The Scientific Method, & How to Create a Science Fair Project. We continue to learn more each year! This year the workshops will include more information on engineering projects and on judging.

Project subjects can be from your student’s area of interest or from the area of science being covered that year. They can be worked on a couple hours each week or completed as a 3 to 8 week unit study. Whatever works for you. The time commitment is worth it! Prizes and awards are waiting to be won!
