The Science Fair will be held on Friday, February 29th, 2024 in the Gym from 6 pm to 8 pm.
This event is totally free! You don’t need to submit a project to attend. The entire Horace Mann community is encouraged to join us to explore, discover and enjoy. It promises to be a fun night packed with fascinating presentations cool things to explore. Last year we did a virtual science fair. CLICK HERE to check it out. The project and activities are still up for you to enjoy. If you need access e-mail: enrichment@mannptsa.org
There is no cost to participate or register in the science fair. Registering early helps us make sure we have enough tables and space for all the projects. You can choose 1 of 3 types of projects.
1. Experient - come up with a question, choose one variable to change, and observe and document the outcome. (ie the scientific method)
2. Informational - Younger students or first-time participants could create an “informational project”, which shows a student’s mastery of a specific area of science. eg "The 5 senses", "The Planets", "Mineral Harness Scale", etc
3. Demonstration Learn about a scientific principal and demonstrate or explain the principal. "Bernoulli's Principal", "Capillary Action", etc
All participants will be asked to bring a display board, model, or other visual representation of their project. Below is an example of a display board layout:
Questions to Ask: To help people visiting your project, create a list of questions that you are ready to answer. Here is a form you can print and fill out to have on your table.
