Each student is required to participate in the Science Fair this school year. You may work in groups of no more than 3 students in your group. A copy of the rubric and due dates is the second page of your packet.
3
You will be provided with a letter to inform your parents of your required participation. Each student must have this letter signed and dated by their parent/guardian before being able to participate. A student who fails to provide this documentation will not be permitted to participate and will receive grades of zero for each assignment linked to the science fair project. You will also have to have a student checklist and parent consent form on file with your science teacher before performing your experiment.
4
Upon the completion of your project, each student must complete a peer evaluation form for each member of their group. This grade will be a test grade. For groups of 3, the average of the two evaluation forms will determine the grade.
5
* 9/29/10 : Topic of Interest and Hypothesis Form (3 Quiz Grades) 10/4/10 : Research Plan (3 Quiz Grades) 10/20/10: Abstract ( 1 Test Grade ) 10/25/10 Final Project ( 3 Test Grades)
6
Select 2 topics of interest. Complete a one page paper providing background information about your subject matter. If necessary use this to make your project more specific. Compose a hypothesis statement in an if/then format. (Include your independent and dependent variables in this portion)

A student or group choosing to use live animals or people will be required to complete additional paperwork to participate in the science fair. This documentation will be provided by your instructor if necessary.
8
Students may attend tutorials to get assistance with their science fair projects. Unless the experiment requires that a student be in a laboratory setting, student(s) will complete the project outside of school. This is a student effort that shows his/her ability to implement the scientific method not your instructors.
9
You have been provided with a graphic organizer to organize the sections in your research plan. The criteria and rubric for this portion of your project. After submitting your research plan, you will be responsible for completing a student checklist and your parents will sign a consent form. This has to be completed before performing your experiment.
