Most of the time, the subject of your project will be completely up to you. This may seem scary, but this is where the fun comes in. When your teacher gave you this assignment, he gave you the freedom to come up with a project idea that would be interesting to YOU.
A normal homework assignment is designed by your teacher and you have to do it whether you want it or not. A science project is invented by you, so you can explore things that interest you the most. It's a unique opportunity to learn while also expressing your creativity, both in the design of the experiment and the project display shown at your science fair.
And don't forget that an award winning science fair project has the potential to earn you a place in local, state, regional, or even national science fair competitions. There you can compete with other students for scholarships or other prizes. Your average homework assignment definitely can't do that!
This guide will help you through the process of doing a science fair project, from finding a general idea, narrowing it down to a specific topic, designing your experiment, and even presenting your project to the judges. Stick with the advice in this guide, and you might just end up with an award-winning science fair project that was also a lot of fun to do.
So, no matter what your grade or your level of competition, whether an elementary school, middle school, or high school science fair, this guide will help you on your way to a fun, easy, and maybe even award-winning science fair project.
Let's get started!
