School’s out play date (NC Museum of Natural Sciences/Museum of History in downtown Raleigh)
The science fair is almost here! Students who completed an entry form may begin dropping off their projects TODAY after school.
Stop by Tuesday night, 5:30-6:30 to view student work and find out who won!
For the 3rd, 4th and 5th graders who are going to have their Science Fair projects judged on Tuesday morning, here are a few tips about talking to the judges:
Remember, the judges are just regular people who are interested in learning about your project. They want you to do well and are rooting for you to succeed.
Questions commonly asked by judges
“Tell me about your project.”
“What did you find out?”
“Why did you do your project this way?”
“What does that word mean?”
“Why do you think your results turned out as they did?”
“If going to study this more, what would you do next?”
The best way to prepare is to practice explaining your project to others. You should be able to explain your project in about 2 minutes. Talk clearly and simply. You can use your display board as reference but do not simply read your board to the judges.
Practice answering the questions above as well. Get others to ask you questions and learn answers to questions that you do not know.
On the day of the fair you will probably have to speak to two or more judges, sometimes in small groups and sometimes individually. Smile, don’t rush and let them know how excited you are about your project!
Master Chang’s Martial Arts is offering a special 2-week Intro Taekwondo program for new students only (new Master Chang’s student). All proceeds will benefit Oak Grove Elementary School. Dates and further information to follow.
