The Invention Fair is a required project for all GATE fourth grade students which is to be completed at home. This year it will all be held in person at the Jane Phillips Elementary School Gym. For this project, students will plan, produce an invention, create a visual aid to promote it, and write a report describing it. Also students will record a video presenting their project at home by reading their written report and showing their invention then uploading the video into Google Classroom.
You will find several resources below, such as the contract, the requirements of the visual aid and written report, as well as the rubric that Mr. Rhoades will use to evaluate each invention. These same resources can be found within the Google Classroom as well. Also on Google Classroom, you will find Examples of pas Bartlesville Student's Invention Commercials.
If you have any questions or need additional details, please contact Mr. Rhoades at rhoadesta@bps-ok.org.
