We are excited to prepare for McKinley's Science Fair. This year’s Science Fair Club will be offered to 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students who wish to prepare for the McKinley Science Fair being held in January 2024. Students who place in the McKinley Science Fair will advance to the District Science Fair in February 2024.
Our Science Fair Club will meet every Wednesday, from 3:15 pm- 4:15 pm, in Ms. Burns' room (Rm 309). During this time, students will focus on the scientific method, conducting research, planning their experiment, and observing the world in which they live. This club will encourage members to identify the ways science affects their lives and their community. Students will also be taught the proper components of a science fair presentation.
Each meeting will focus on different aspects of the project, so it's important for participants to attend as many meetings as possible. However, students who are unable to attend club meetings may still complete a project for our fair. We will not meet during Thanksgiving or Christmas break. Permission forms can be picked up from Ms. Burns or from the office.
