You are required to choose a research question that can be answered through an experiment or through building/testing a prototype you designed. You can complete a sciencebuddies.com survey to get suggested project ideas based on your interest, if you do not already have an idea. You will learn to research in class and obtain 3 -5 articles that support your project idea. At home, you will complete your experiment or build/test your prototype to draw conclusions about your investigation. You will complete a science fair tri-fold display board at home. You will prepare and give an in-class presentation the weeks leading up to the Science Fair.
