District Science & Engineering Fair Winners
On Saturday, February 18, 2006, 197
students representing 20 elementary schools, 7 middle school and 2 high
schools participated in the District Science and Engineering
Fair.
Participation in the science fair is an
opportunity for students to participate in a scientific investigation.
Each student's project explores a science topic that interests them.
Students identify a problem or a question, conduct research, and carry
out an experiment to learn more. Building a display and presenting
results of their experiment is an important and fun way of sharing their
creative abilities and the results of their investigation.
Entries were judged in 5 divisions: K-3 Class Projects, K-3
Individual/Group Projects, Intermediate (Grades 4-5) Individual/Group
Projects, Junior (Grades 6-8) Individual/Group Projects, and Senior
(Grades 9-12) Individual/Group Projects. Within each division,
projects were grouped by scientific area: Earth and Environmental
Sciences, Chemistry, Physical Science, Biological and Behavioral
Sciences, and Consumer or Materials Science.
Judges Quality Awards were given for exceptional demonstration of skills in a
given category. Ribbons were earned and awarded to the following
