Beyond the School Science Fair: Advanced Science Competitions
December 9, 2014 1:00 PM
A science project, especially an advanced one, may have a longer shelf life than just a single fair or a linear competition circuit. Top science students may find many events and venues in which to enter and showcase their research and findings. Science Buddies' Advanced Project Guide helps students follow a roadmap to advanced project success. Many students come to Science Buddies looking for an entry-level (or grade-level) science exploration to meet the requirements of a school… Read more

You don't have to wait until the last minute to start the project display board for a science fair project. A great board takes planning, and you can do a good deal of preliminary legwork getting your board ready even before the project is complete! Above: Students share their science projects with project display boards. See these students' stories: Galactic Curiosity and A Crash Course Science Project.

Bringing Science Magic to the Classroom
June 4, 2014 10:00 AM
A magic milk rainbow may be all about what's happening at the surface level between milk and soap, but when kids create the magic, the learning excitement is palpable. For Lily Arendt, hands-on science activities are a great way to help kids uncover the magic of science. We couldn't agree more! Above: Lily Arendt and a class of students explore surface tension with the Make a Milk Rainbow science activity. For Lily Arendt, a biology student at DePaul University in Chicago and a… Read more
Science Activities: Fun Science Perfect for Home or School
June 2, 2014 6:00 AM
Science Buddies has added a new "activities" section to its award-winning science education website. The new science activities complement the existing library of science fair project ideas but bridge the gap between science "assignment" or "independent project" and doing science just for fun at home or in the classroom. These new activities appear just as summer break begins for many students, making the timing perfect for families looking to keep kids engaged with science all summer… Read more
