This year we were given the opportunity to rethink the Science Fair at our school. In the past our Science Fair has been presentations of trifold cardboard experiments. The value of students pursuing an area of interest and documenting their learning has never been a question in my mind but unfortunately science and discovery need to be available for all children. Many of our children were not participating and we wanted to try to rethink our Science Fair.
In addition to the trifold cardboard presentations we added the following experiences for our students.
Makey Makeys
Sphero Mazes
Our after-school group created an awesome maze based on the book by Dr. Suess – Oh the Places You Will Go.
LED Bookmarks
Using the LEDs that were donated from Instructables, families created LED bookmarks.
3D Printing
Our 3D Printers were debuted with families after the arrival of 4 2nd Generation Cube printers last week.
