Yeah - another Science Fair Project is in the History Books! We have actually gotten quite proficient - and have "recycled" many great ideas - always remembering the KISS theory (Keep It Simple Stupid). I found one of the first ones that Preston did - and we didn't know what we were doing - poor kid. I saw some similar Projects at the school this morning. One was titled "Can Lemons Conduct Electricity?" The only thing on the board was a list of items used for his experiment and a picture of a lemon. Another one was on Molecules or Atoms and had a bunch of styrofoam balls glued to the board - didn't really know what they were trying to do. One kid was upset because he had "written" on his board and someone told him he couldn't - I told him it was okay to write on the board. There were boards of all sizes, shapes and colors.
Parker's project was titled "What Makes Ice Melt the Fastest?" This is a picture of the beginning of his experiment. We followed the Scientific process - question - hypothesis - experiment - results - conclusion - charts-graphs-pictures and of course the "Project Data Book". It was displayed nicely with background colors of Red, Green and Blue. We found out several projects ago - to staple everything to the board - much easier/faster than glue sticks or tape.
Can't wait to do another one next year.......

Our project was about whether or not heat and cold effect how high a ball ball bounces --- go figure!
