8th Grade Sciencer Fair Project

Hm 8th grade science fair project?

Which beans make the most tofu :)
Different lights metals exhaust when burned... etc

Grace J: Never use "better" in Science! What does "better" mean in that case? Better whitening? Less stinking breath?

8th grade science fair project ideas?

For my 8th grade science project I did "Why do people lie?" and had all these surveys and graphs and stuff. The class got involved and the discussion went on for awhile. I got an A and the class loved it.

Funny thing is, it was entirely made up. I never did any surveys or any of that. I just made up a bunch of charts and graphs and statistics. So my project about lying was...a lie. :)

What are some good science fair projects for 5th graders?

When I was in sixth grade, I did a science experiment to see how the percentage of cocoa in chocolate affects the rate at which it melts. So, I set up three small heating lamps, placed an upside-down glass below  the bulb of each one, and placed a square of chocolate (white, semisweet, and unsweetened) on the upfacing bottom surface of each of these glasses. Then, I timed and recorded the amount of time it took for each square to melt, repeating the process for several trials. This project was fun, educational, and not cliché and over-done like the traditional volcano or coke and mentos ones. Plus, you get to eat the melted chocolate at the end of each trial!

3rd grade science fair project? Which takes more water a bath or a shower?

"2. Use less power - take a shower!

Sometimes a Myth, but sometimes True
The Government pushed this one heavily in the mid-1990s; I have a nice badge showing a dinosaur taking a shower. But in practice the answer is a lot more complex. The easiest way to test this out is to put the plug in the bath next time you have a shower, and see how much it fills up. If, at the end of the shower, there is less water than you would usually have in a bath, then you will probably save money by taking a shower. But it's not quite that simple...

The simple answer assumes that you are using the same source to heat water for the bath and the shower. This will be the case if you are using your central heating boiler or an immersion heater. But a lot of British homes have a "Power Shower" that uses electricity to provide a powerful and instant shower. Not only do they use water more quickly than a shower fed from a hot water system, they also use on-peak electricity that costs around 7p a unit, compared to 2p for gas. At this point it gets complicated, as to give a firm answer you would also need to know the efficiency of your heating boiler, the amount of insulation on the hot water tank and the losses on the pipework between the tank and your shower.

In fact, it may not make any difference either way, if you are using the central heating boiler to warm the water. For in most cases, especially in summer, we leave the boiler on for a fixed period of time, allowing it to heat up the tank of water. If the bath or shower is drawn off after the end of a water heating period, it will not affect the heating cost on the day it was used (for that has already happened) but on the next heating cycle. And if the tanks cools down then it will not be significantly affected by how much hot water was used after the previous cycle. "

What are some ideas for a cheap 6th grade science fair project?

Have your child make a crystal radio and compare the sound quality or a different variable to that of a radio made out of the rock galena coupled with a cat whisker that will also produce AM radio. You'll need copper wire and a short tube to wrap the wire around for an antenna, then solder a tuner, found at an electronics store, to all the necessary things that need soldering. You can place the applied materials for the radio on a small piece of wood that's flat. It would make for an excellent science fair project! You'll also need an amplifier for the radio. The radio will process as mono so just buy a single earphone and you can listen. Cut off the plug on the earphones and solder them. It's doable, research crystal and galena with a cat whisker radios. They used to make them in WWII. It's kind of a cool idea. The radio doesn't even need to be plugged in! Hope this helps. :)

What are some tips for winning a science fair project in 7th grade?

An science projects for kids, which tests a specific hypothesis or an invention project, in which requires children try to develop new things and/or techniques are good choices. Other is a study project, where students create a collection of items and then compare them in insightful ways.In a nutshell, students decide what they’ll do and how they’ll do it, they gather the materials, talk about their ideas with their teacher or parents, do their experiments, inventions, or studies and keep detailed notes of all their experiments, testing’s, measurements and observations. This is all pretty complicated for a five-year old and hopefully the following tips will put it into perspective.1. Make science fair projects age appropriate. Science fair projects and electronics projects that match the kindergarten science skills list are preferable.2. A project that represents mostly parent thinking, planning and presentation, benefits the parent more than the child.3. Don’t push your students and their parents to complete an involved science project. There will be many opportunities in future grades for more difficult tasks.4. A science project that involves using the five senses to make observations and sharing this information with pictures, charts, or demos is a great start.5. Keep science fair projects non-competitive for kindergarten. Young students will benefit from being part of a large science event where all participants are appreciated.6. Encourage parents to talk with their children about their project, to ask them what they are wondering about it, what questions they have, to keep the activities hands on, and to find more than one way to solve problems. Have parents ask the children how they want to share their observations and discoveries. The point is that the child has opportunities to think things through, not just follow steps given by an adult.7. If children have had prior opportunities recording their observations in class at science centers, they will be familiar with the process when completing a science fair project idea.
