1 Dear Parents and Students, Fourth Grade Science Fair The fourth grade teachers are proud to announce our annual Science Fair! ALL fourth graders will take part in this very special project and event. Students may choose to do a project from the following topics: Weather Magnets and Electricity Matter Plants and Animals Earth and Space The project must be experimental (no models or demonstrations please). Please do not choose an experiment that involves animals, human specimens, or body fluids. Students will research their topic and should be prepared to share this with the class. Some research materials will be available in the classroom, but a trip to the library may be necessary. ALL TOPICS MUST BE APPROVED BY THE CLASSROOM TEACHER/PANEL BEFORE BEGINNING THE PROJECT. The topic due date is Wednesday, April 1th. This is a project that the students will work on at home. However, we will be going over project skills in the classroom. Class time will not be provided to work on projects. Please remember that this is the child s project, and parental involvement should be limited to supervision. The work should be done by the child. The research report, rough draft, thinking map/plan/note cards, and bibliography will be due on April 0 th. The project due date is Monday, May 18th. We will be holding the Science Fair on Thursday, May 21st in the cafeteria. We are inviting you to come view all of the great science fair projects on display that morning prior to the beginning of the school-wide lunch schedule. All science projects need to consist of three elements: A Display Unit and Exhibit Materials, a Written Report, and an Oral Presentation. Attached you will find a Science Fair Checklist detailing these three elements and what should be completed for a successful project. This project will be worth the equivalent of two test grades in Science. The project will be graded using the attached Scoring Rubric (see page 4). Please complete the last page of this packet completely so that the Science Fair panel of teachers can decide on approval. A parent and student signature is required. Your child should be able to explain what he or she wants to do for an experiment. Thank you, The Fourth Grade Team 1
2 Science Fair Checklist: 1. Display Unit: Your Project should be placed on a three-sided display unit, which will form the background for the project (as pictured below). It should be made of sturdy materials so your graphs, charts, photographs, or printed information can be easily shown. Display boards can be found at Office Depot, Michaels, Office Max, or Wal- Mart. If you bring any loose materials the day of the fair to demonstrate your experiment, please provide a container for it. (no glass is permitted) The display unit should contain the following information: Title Title of project (please put your name/teacher s name on the back of the board) Purpose Why did you choose this project? EX The purpose of my project is to see which brand of bubble gum retains the most flavor after ten minutes of chewing. Hypothesis (Prediction) An educated guess about the result of your experiment. EX I will prove which brand of bubble gum retains the most flavor after 10 minutes. I think it will be Bubbles Galore because it seems to be the largest. Materials- The things you need to complete the project. Procedure List the steps you took to complete your project. EX 1) I bought four different brands of bubble gum: Bubbles Galore, Lots of Bubbles, Bubbles & Bubbles, and Bubble-O- Rama. 2) On the first day I chewed a piece of Results The actual data (information) you collected from the experiment. This is where you would show the tables and/or graphs. Conclusion Use you experiment results. Why did your project turn out the way it did? What did you learn about the topic? EX My hypothesis was correct. Bubbles Galore gum did retain the most flavor after ten minutes of chewing. or My hypothesis was not correct. Lots of Bubbles retained the most flavor after ten minutes of chewing. Visual Aids (photos, plants, etc.) Lettering Examples and Explanation Hypothesis Title Results Materials Procedure Purpose Graphs Conclusion Example of a possible board display 2
3 2. Written Report This report should contain background research about your chosen topic of study. *Please note that the report is not about how you performed the experiment or the results. The report should contain the following information: Title Page (title, name and date) Research notes, an outline, thinking map, or plan for writing the research report should go behind the bibliography. An edited and revised rough draft of your report (not to be typed) should also go behind the bibliography. The report should be in your own words, copying from books and the internet is not allowed. Final Draft-1 page report about the topic (i.e. The Origin of Bubblegum) This report is not about the experiment, but about research and information that you learned about your topic. Please use your notes to help you write and edit/revise your rough draft. The final copy should be rewritten neatly or typed. Bibliography (Be sure to list all printed, ( or more), materials, including books and computer articles, you used to help you research the report. Please include at least two book sources, not all internet sources.) See example bibliography below. 1. Book resource- Author s Last name, First name. Title of the book used for the report. City of publication, publisher, Copyright Year. Example: Smith, John. Trip Across the Ocean. Orlando: Star Publishing Co., Internet Resource- Title of the Internet article. Date page was created or updated. (date you found the research). Example: Fun Science. /16/90. (4/20/0). Encyclopedia Resource- Title of selection. Name of Encyclopedia, Date. Example: Magnets. World Book Encyclopedia Oral Presentation A great presentation will include information found about your topic in your written report, how it relates to the experiment and a summary of your experiment. You are actually showing and telling your classmates what you learned, what steps you took to complete your experiment, and the conclusions you reached. Use any materials to demonstrate to the class what actually happened. You may not read from your report because the presentation is about your experiment.
