Science Fair Reminders:
Project Ideas:
Egg-Bottle Project (see how heating and cooling affects air pressure)
Effect of temperature on sugar production
Feeding Flowers
Density with oil and water
Magnets
Coin Cleaning
Batteries (build a battery out of a stack of pennies and nickels)
How does color influence recall?
Do Screen and Text Color Affect Retention?
The Usefulness of Plant Growth Enhancers
The Relationship between the pH level of soil and plant growth
Pollution and depth of water
Yeast experiments
Science Experiment Examples:
*Question--what is your question? What are you testing?
*Hypothesis--in an IF...THEN statement, what is your prediction to your test?
Question: Which liquid can grow plants taller?
Hypothesis: If I add water, Pepsi or Gatorade to a plant, then Gatorade will make the plant grow taller.
Question: Which household cleaner will clean a penny the best?
Hypothesis: If I clean 3 different dirty pennies with baking soda, facial cleaner, or hot sauce, then the facial cleaner will clean the penny the best.
Question: What reaction will occur if milk, food coloring and dish detergent were mixed together?
Hypothesis: If I mix milk, food coloring, and dish detergent together, then they will explode.

Science Fair Reminders:
- You have to be able to test your experiment at least 3 times. Example: if you are testing what liquid makes a plant grow taller, you have to use at least 3 types of liquids
- Take pictures
- Make graphs or charts to show your experiment
