Science fair projects provide for an excellent opportunity to assess what your students have learned in a real world setting. Before you know it, the day will come when you will celebrate your student's achievements in your school-based science fair and it will also give the community the opportunity to see the wonderful learning that is going on in your school and classroom. It is a lot of work but the rewards are well worth it, and it will give students an educational experience they will remember long after they leave your classroom.
