measurable and testable idea ASAP!!!!!!

Post by deleted-78493 »

Please help me. My teacher said that i need to make a science fair experiment that is measurable and testable. I don't have any idea what I'm going to do and i need to have research and a problem question comparing 2 or more things. I still have a long time to finish it but i need an idea, question and research ASAP! She said i could do i on anything but, I'm not really sure what I want to do it on. I wouldn't really want to do it on computers instead on something that has to do with physical science or chemistry, maybe even plants, really any thing would do i just need something. I want to impress the judges, this is really important to me and if you could help me I would really appreciate it.

Hii Midori,

Welcome to Science Buddies! You are in the right place for help with your science project. I recommend that you try the topic selection guide on the Science Buddies website, or look through titles of project that sound interesting to you. Many of the project ideas include a detailed experiment with information on how to measure results and there are a hundreds of physical and life science projects to choose from.

I hope this will help you get started. Sometime selecting a project question is the most difficult part of doing a project. Let us know if you need more help.

Good luck!

Hi Midori - I hope you were able to spend time looking through projects in the Science Buddies Project Ideas library. There are many, many things you could explore!

One good way to narrow down your choices is to try the Topic Selection Wizard. You'll answer a series of questions about what you like to do and are interested in, and the Wizard will offer some recommendations for projects you might enjoy. You might find a perfect project that way! If you would like to give the Topic Selection Wizard a try, you begin here: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... gister.php

Also, there are a number of Science Buddies Project Ideas that involve plant science. You can browse them here: https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... l?from=AAE

Please let us know what you choose!
