A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
Putting together this list, I could only think one thing. The Internet would have been a great tool when I was working on my science fair project way back when. There are so many great resources for students, parents, and teachers online, and maybe the project I did as a third grader -- measuring various climates effect on the growth of mold on apples -- might have been helped out a bit with some of these online resources.
How does a group of third-graders measure mold, you ask? Well... That was the same question our teacher asked the group, and although we didn't know ourselves, we were determined and forged ahead. Ha. After a few weeks, it became clear that we didn’t meet the standard rule for a successful science project -- ask a testable question with measurable results.
I can only imagine how some of these resources would have helped. So with science fair season here, we’ve put together a list of science project resources for parents and students to help out along the way. My only word of advice: Don’t let your student measure mold growth on anything.
There were so many great science fair resources on the Web, and we just highlighted few here. I wish I could have included them all here. Let us know what your favorites are in the comments. What resources are you planning to use?
