Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Hi,
My name is Sunil. I'm in the 7th grade and am entering a project in this year's MCPS science fair. My testable question for my science fair project is "How does grey-water affect plant growth?" and my Science teacher is requiring us students to 'interview' an expert as a knowledge source for our project by November 9th. I would have to ask 3-5 questions and write a 5-paragraph essay reflecting on the interview. Before that though, I have to turn in a possible interviewee's name and title (That's due on November 1st!!). I was wondering if there is anyone that can help me with this? Please? Maybe I could do it on this forum? I'm really lost and confused...

Thanks in advance,

Sunil

Hi Sunil,

There will likely be an expert on this forum who can help you with your interview, but you need to understand that many experts only check the forum once per week. Hopefully one of our experts will offer a name and title for you to use before your deadline (which is very close!). Since my area of expertise is in animals, not plants, I do not consider myself to be the appropriate expert to interview for your topic.

While you are waiting, make sure to read the ScienceBuddies information regarding interviews through the forum, which is in the message INTERVIEWS: IMPORTANT INFORMATION! under Announcements (at the top of the forum index). Then you can post your questions in this same thread, so an expert knows what he/she will be expected to answer.

Good luck!
