My Project

My students need bags, batteries, paintbrushes, alligator clips, LEDs, pliers, modeling clay, Gas lighter, ball bearings, tape, screwdrivers, ferrofluid, mineral oil, neodymium block magnets, Dawn, label, sticks, jars, seeds, WD-40, straws, soil meter, and other supplies for Science Fair projects.

Students look forward to this event every year.

Science fairs encourage hands-on learning, foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and promote scientific curiosity. They allow students to explore their interests, engage in the scientific method, and develop confidence in their abilities. Science fairs can boost teamwork and communication skills, and even help students envision themselves as future scientists.
