Kate and Laura's science fair

Our experiment was ''How do different exercises affect your pulse and breathing rate''

Our purpose was that we wanted to know which exercise makes us burn the most calories so we can be fit!

Devonne and Tunisia Science fair

Our Experiment is "What brand of flour bakes the best chocolate cakes?".

Our Purpose was to find the best quality flour.

We descovered Pam's standard white flour is a better quality flour.

Josh and Cailan Science Fair

We did our science fair experiment to answer the question "What sugar coated chocolate melts fastest?"

We discovered that Pebbles melted the slowest and Smarties melted the fastest.

This means that if you buy these lollies in summer, Pebbles will last the longest.

Science Fair Term 3

Hi Everyone,
Next term we are going to into preparing for the science Fair in full force as it is due by week 3! There are ideas for projects that have gone home with some students.This does not mean it is a homework task.
If there is a particular topic which has an experiment that will take 2-3 weeks to complete you may begin it in the holidays.
REMEMBER THOUGH:
Fill in your Hypothesis (what you think the results will be and why you think that) and your log book (a 'diary' of all the things you did as you complete your experiment.

If you want to do some experiments for fun -Remember... It must be safe and ethical (humane) or supervised!!!
