Science Fair
Who, What, Where, When
![Page 2: Science Fair Who, What, Where, When. What is an experiment? It is a test. It is a comparison. It is measurable. It is NOT a demonstration of a science](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649f295503460f94c43474/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
What is an experiment?
It is a test. It is a comparison.It is measurable.
It is NOT a demonstration of a science concept.

A variable is something that changes in your
experiment

CONTROL = STANDARD
The Standard by which a variable is compared

TO SIMPLIFY OUR SCIENCE FAIR PROJECTS, WE WILL BE USING ONE CONTROL
AND ONE VARIABLE.

Brainstorm
(You can do it!!!)(Keep in mind that you can use the
Pacific University library. If you want to check materials out there, you will need to go to the Forest Grove library and get a form that says you are in
good standing.)

Conclusion and Summary--Due Feb 17
What can you conclude from your data? Was your
hypothesis correct? What would you change with your experiment if you were to
repeat it? (etc.)

If you are interested in going to Portland State: The registration deadline is Feb12. (The website
has a different date—I don’t want to wait until the last
minute because it is “online” registration only.) We will be reviewing this process after
school in January.Portland State Science Fair is April 2, 2004 (a school day)
