Science Fair

We are getting stuck into the process of science fair. I am looking forward to our students setting up some interesting investigations. We are giving lots of time to the idea generating stage. The students are exploring their interests, problems/frustrations around them, as well as investigations that others have done. Here are a few previous Te Pahu School examples that have done well in the past.

An investigation into the density of wood by Hayze and Logan.

An investigation into what shape hull creates the biggest wake behind a boat by Sophie.

An investigation into which wood burns the slowest by Breanna and Lil.y.  

An investigation into whether children learn better in groups or on their own by Laura and Ellen,

The students have started exploring topics from below and are brainstorming possible aspects of the topic to explore. We have looked at what makes a good science fair project and the basic process.
