All Corpus Christi seventh and eighth grade students are required to participate. The purpose of the science fair is for students to experience the scientific method and explore subjects of interest. The science fair project provides the opportunity to practice project management skills that students will use throughout their lifetime.
This project will require a large amount of time and in order to be successful should be planned for in manageable parts. There are defined due dates to help students manage the project.
|
| Requirements to participate are that students must be in Grades 7-8. |
This year the process will consist of the following sections:
- Experimental Design Form-Mrs. Miller must approve the proposal. An approval notice will be sent home.
- Keep a Logbook-this composition style book is a diary to record all activities and time spent on science fair.
- Experiment Update Form-summary of library research progress. Use the library and Internet for Background Research-record bibliography information and brief summary in logbook. Record specific facts and information on loose-leaf or note cards. Research is used to understand the experiment topic and explain it in the Introduction and Final Report.
- Introduction and Bibliography
- Final Report-complete report on your science fair project.
- Display Binder and Backboard-Final display for the science fair.

Required equipment or supplies: Students will need a composition book to use as a logbook for only science fair work, more details about using the logbook are included in the instructions document below. Students will also need to purchase any necessary materials to conduct the research data and build the display summarizing the process and data. In your logbook, specifically describe all materials and equipment. (Example: brand, lot number, expiration date, etc.)
When you purchase supplies, buy more than enough to avoid switching batch or lot numbers.
