Stough Elementary STEM Night & Science Fair
Register to participate.
All young scientists, technologists, engineers, and mathematicians wishing to display a project at the fair must register in advance through this online form. We strongly encourage early registration in order to reserve your space. Final registration deadline is Friday, 2/23.
Projects should be student driven.
Project ideas should come from the students, and the project should be driven by them. Parents should use their best judgment in deciding when to get involved, such as when there is a potential safety issue. For especially young kids, parents may provide some guidance, but it is important that the kids be able to call the project their own.
These worksheets will help guide in completing the Science Fair project. Grades 3 - 5 Science Fair Worksheet, Grades K - 2 Science Fair Worksheet
Working with someone else.
You may work on your project independently, or you may optionally work with a partner who is also a student at Stough Elementary; for example, a classmate or a sibling.
Need help choosing a topic?
When it comes to choosing a topic, the sky is the limit! What have you wondered about? The best topics come from your own genuine curiosity about how something works, or why something is the way that it is. But if you have trouble thinking of something on your own, the internet is full of resources to help you choose a topic.
