Required Reading for Science Fair Projects
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Strategies for Winning Science Fair Projects is a must read for anyone who wants to win in a science fair. From the first scientific question to the first place at the International Science Fair - Joyce Henderson and Heather Tomasello do a fantastic job at describing what it takes to win. Buy this book if you want to win - I wish I had it when I was in doing my first science fair project.
Excellent Guide for Students Grades 6-12
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
This book takes students through the process of performing a science experiment from start to finish. It contains insider's tips from an international fair winner and a science fair judge and covers information I couldn't anywhere else -- like how to build a backboard or make graphs from data. It is also very read-able, not dry or boring like a textbook. I recommend it for students and parents of students who want to do well at the fair!
