Science Fair Information 1/7-1/11

Science Fair Season is upon us!

Some important points:

-We will research topics all week, their "problem" is due 1/10
-Hypothesis is due 1/11

They will need a folder that they will keep every paper I give them. They will no longer need to bring their science book to class (unless it is part of their research)

They will need a separate notebook for their research, or journal (preferably no spirals). This is a part of their grade and will be displayed on Science Fair night. The journal will be a part of their science fair grade.

I will occasionally send home notes for you to read and those will require signatures they will bring back, and that it also a part of their grade; I want to keep you as involved as I can and I don't want any surprises for you! I will also actively update the blog, so please add this to your favorites! :)

What you should expect this week of 1/7-1/11

Monday- I will give out a handout that includes Science Fair Helpful Hints, they will also get a timeline of when everything is due, it must be strictly followed.- handout will go in folder.
