Science Project Topics
Creating an Experiment from a Model, or Demonstration
Elementary and middle school science projects almost always have to be done in the form of an experiment. Many times, a model can be used in an experiment, and variables can be added to a demonstration, so that it can be one, too.
At a Glance – All of our Science Fair Topics
People often ask me for an entire list of all the science fair topics we have. Here’s a list of each project topic, and along with a link where you can get instructions on how to get the topic turned into something ready for the science fair!
They’re LIVE – Middle School Science Projects!
We’re happy to report that Middle School Science Projects are now live! As you know, we’ve been working like – well – mad scientists at our house, and we can’t wait for you to choose your favorite project and start experimenting.
Cosmetology Science Experiment
Earlier this week I talked about our new science project about hair. I suppose, since we are scientists, that I need to call it a Cosmetology Science Experiment. Anyhow – getting this project just right has been about as difficult as getting the right hair cut for my boys. But it’s been fun!
Science Project About Hair – Our Hair Raising Fun…
Designing the science experiment is an important part of our science. Our goal is to take the guesswork out for families, so that they have a step by step list for a science project that works. Read the story of how we found out what tape would be best to use in a science project about hair.
Science Fair Topics for Middle School Projects
We’re getting ready to roll out a whole new set of science project with science fair topics that are perfect for middle school! In fact, the projects are called Middle School Science Projects. Stay tuned for more information on these cool project topics.
Easy Science Projects – Guest Author
Easy science projects with elementary kids aren’t always done for the science fair. Sometimes, you’re just looking for something for fun. Here is a guest writer to share some easy science project ideas that you probably can’t take to the fair, but that are a whole lot of fun!
If you do need an easy science [...]
What is Density?
Density is an interesting scientific subject that is sometimes a little bit hard to understand. What is density? Sometimes dense means somebody has a hard head. But in science, dense tells how closely “packed” or “crowded” a particular thing is.
Here’s a way to understand it better. You’ll need two sandwich size zip close bags [...]
Static Electricity Science Project
Static Electricity Science Project – Have you ever heard the saying “opposites attract”? You may or may not agree with it, but in science, it’s true – opposites do attract.
All matter – which is almost everything that you can see – is made up of atoms. Atoms are tiny particles that are the building blocks [...]
