Science Fair Documents

The date of the actual science fair has changed to March 30 (was previously March 23).  All other deadlines will stay the same...students will bring their final project and be prepared for the their oral presentation on March 30.
Miss Sauls and Mr. Menke are working with the students on the mechanics of their research paper - and assigning things like notecards, outlines, and rough drafts.  Those due dates are not on my paperwork.  I will grade their research paper only - not the intermediate steps.  You can see all the other steps (Procedure Report, etc.) on the General Info or Parents' Handouts below.
These are also available in RenWeb....but all the handouts I have given the students so far and the parents' handout are available at the links below:

Parent Letter
Student Handout 1 - General Info
Student Handout 2 - The Research Question

Student Handout 3 - The Research Report
