Science Fair Breakdown

 
This week, we will be finishing our example science fair project in class, and students will start launching into their own!  Please note one small change from the packet I sent to parents last week:  just the typed science fair journal will be due Jan. 6th, and the actual board will be due Jan. 11th.  I will post which part of the science fair journal is due for homework each day, but here is a complete list:
 
1) Wed. Dec. 7: Project Proposal due!  
2) Fri. Dec. 9: Question & Research (written in science fair journal) due
3) Tues. Dec. 13: Hypothesis (written in science fair journal) due
4) Fri. Dec. 16: Procedures (written in science fair journal) due
5) Mon. Jan. 2nd: complete Science journal rough draft due
6) Fri., Jan. 6th: FINAL TYPED Science Fair Journal due 
7) Wed., Jan. 11th: FINAL Science Fair Board due! 
 
Basically,  the goal is to have all the nitty gritty things done before Christmas break, which will leave the experimenting/finished S.F. board to be done over break and the first bit of January.  If you want to start experimenting sooner because your project requires more time, simply complete the above science fair journal steps earlier and turn it in so I can approve it before you start.
