This Week in APBio (Nov 16-20)
Dear Parents and students,
Just in case you missed it last week, It is time to start thinking and working on the Science Fair and STEM Festival. Each year students produce projects that are highly creative and well thought out. The students will not have to present until after Christmas break, but now is the time to start preparing. Students who choose the Science Fair should keep in mind that they must develop a project that has a clear experiment with data. The scientific method must be followed and all data must be clearly presented. It is suggested that the experiment they choose will have some real life application. A website has been produced which has all the available information on the Science Fair and STEM Fest for this year. Students can access this site via the link below. Last week the students chose either Science Fair or STEM Fest using the online form. This week the students will choose their Science Fair topic or STEM challenge using the online form.
