Workshops
Free science fair workshops are available for students in grades 3-6 and an accompanying adult to learn how to do a science fair project. Each workshop opens with an informational presentation on what makes a good science fair project and how to lay out a project board. Scientists then guide participants through simple sample experiments using the scientific method, perform mock reviews and brainstorm ideas for participants' own science fair projects.
