Science and Engineering Fair Participant Confirmation letters were sent home with students on Friday, January 23! Contact Mrs. Woodcox (bwoodcox@psdschools.org) if you have questions or need additional information!
We hope you are busy experimenting and testing!
Tip for this week! Please note that when you start your project - whether you choose the Scientific Method or Engineering Design Process - you should begin using a notebook or journal to keep track of your progress and to record your work and findings. You should bring the notebook to the fair as part of your display. You will receive points for having a thoroughly documented project.
All completed projects will dropped off at the Shepardson Gym on Monday, February 23, 7:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. - that's less than a MONTH away now!
Good luck on your PROJECTS! We can't wait to see all of the amazing science and engineering for this years Science and Engineering Fair!

Scientific Method
Scientific Method: Come up with a testable question, make a hypothesis, and then conduct experiment/tests and collect data to prove or disprove the hypothesis.
Engineering Design: Identify a problem and then work to come a solution. This process generally involves creating a model or prototype that can be designed, tested and improved if necessary.
