Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Doing a science fair project on conductivity and can't find articles at a 5th grade level. all seem to be for a much higher level. Can anyone direct us where to find research on conductiity suitable for a 5th grader. Thanks.

Hi,

You might look at these web pages to see if they are at an appropriate level:

http://www.andybrain.com/sciencelab/200 ... and-water/

I think a fifth grader can read and understand at least some of these pages and experiments.

Good luck!
