Science Fair in three weeks!

SCIENCE FAIR IS IN THREE WEEKS!  Okay, give yourself exactly ten seconds to panic.  Now take a deep breath and go find your info packet.  If you have lost one, the ladies in the office will assist you with another one. This packet has what you need to get a good project done. BY NOW: You should be pretty clear on your topic, conducting some research or refining your experiment, recording observations, collecting data.  You should also be gathering supplies to present your project, like a trifold project board.  Start thinking about how to present your data.


New (as in not deceased) scientist report--  This brief report of 300 words is due June 5.  It should include a modern day scientist with the following information: education, name, field of expertise, philosophy of cosmology (origins of life, beginnings of the universe, etc.)  how they became interested in their science fields, what contributions they have made, what their current interests are...anything else you can find that is pertinent.  Good places to hunt one down:  Nobel prize winners in the sciences,  science periodicals, news such as NPR which is more science focused...or think about what fields you find interesting and start searching for influential current leaders in the field.
