As always, the Seabury School students came up
with some great questions for our much anticipated
annual Science and Engineering Fair.
This student combined her interest and skill in creativity and made an Artbot complete with a working motor. Her question was "Does the Artbot move differently if we change where the Popsicle stick is facing?"
Have you ever wondered what happens when you heat up soap? This student's project was called Hot Soap. Everyone wanted to look, smell and touch his project!
This student was passionate about his geology project. Notice the steps of asking the question, predicting the outcome (the hypothesis), and coming up with a conclusion. He also included a journal, a prerequisite of participating in the Regional Science Fair at PLU.
Does fire need oxygen to burn? How can we know? When asked about her
MIT t-shirt she was wearing, she responded,
"That's where I'm going to go to school!" I believe her!!
This student's kitchen looked like a science lab! He added his sense of humor
to his animated presentation of expanding liquids
by including the saga of the Lego man.
This student's love of games and his knowledge of the web of life came through in his action-packed, hands-on project, The M&M Survival Challenge.
Bones & Calcium was this student's practical, health-conscious project.
She might even change her diet.
This student had an engineering project called Archimedes Screw. He showed his schoolmates, both younger and older, the physics of making water go up a slant. He sure did a lot of work on his own--way to go!
Science Fair was an all day event, presenting to our classmates in the morning, presenting to our schoolmates and going to see theirs in the afternoon, and presenting to our families and friends in the evening.
A terrific scientific time was had by all!
