Choosing a Science Fair Project
Great science fair projects do not need to be hard or expensive. Choosing
a science fair project should not be either!
Try this exercise to help you pick a science project.
List 3-5 (or more) things you are interested in.
These can be activities, objects, events, even people or animals.
What are some questions you have about these subjects?
How might you go about testing one or more of these questions?
When you have a question you think might work, look up information on the
subject and try to design an experiment.
Still can’t come up with an idea? Try some of these helpful web sites.
