Science Projects

See Lesson Ideas for this topic

Doing science projects is a fun way for children to explore the world around them and develop critical thinking and research skills. Ideas from science projects can come from many places. Encourage your children to wonder and ask questions about the world and turn their questions into science projects. Remind your children that when they do a science project, they follow the scientific method. They ask a question, make a hypothesis, plan and carry out an experiment, observe and record data, draw conclusions, and share their results with others. We recommend screening BrainPOP Jr.’s movie on the Scientific Method to review the steps with your children.
