Rubbing Up Against Static Electricity
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
A tried and true balloon activity is to rub a balloon on your head to make your hair stand up. How does the rubbing build up static electricity? Do this experiment to see if the number of rubs makes a difference. Read more
Soil Structure
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
What variables contribute to the properties of the soil in an area? Investigate the role of climate, weather, topography, time, parent material, vegetation, and biological and chemical agents on soil formation. How are soils characterized? There are 3 basic particle sizes which create three basic soil types: sand, silt, and clay. Investigate the properties of the three different types of soil by observing grain size, shape, hardness, color, chemical composition, pore space, aeration,… Read more
Take a Musical Step Back in Time: Make Your Own Phonograph from Everyday Items
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Don't you just love listening to music? In the 1980s, people listened to music on the Sony® Walkman®. Now, people listen to their favorite tunes on MP3 players and on their Apple® iPhonesTM. But listening to music on devices actually started in the late 1800s and early 1900s. In those days, people would gather around their phonograph to listen to their favorite tunes—people were just as amazed with the phonograph as you would be to handle an iPhone. In this physics science… Read more
Riprap: It's Not Hip Hop But Erosion Stop
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever been to the Grand Canyon and seen what water can do over millions of years? When you turn on the faucet, do you see water come out, or mud? In this experiment you'll find out how engineers help prevent erosion, which keeps dirt out of our water. Read more
How Does a Chick Breathe Inside Its Shell?
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever wondered how a chick breathes inside its shell? Every animal needs oxygen to survive, so the chick must get air somehow! Try this science project to discover the answer. Read more
Investigate the Greenhouse Effect
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Has the temperature in your house felt hotter or colder recently? This could be due to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect states that gases in the atmosphere, such as CO2, might increase the surface temperature of Earth. In this science fair project, you will build a small model of Earth and use it to see how the temperature varies, compared to outside of the model. If you select this science fair project, you will be a part of the effort that is working to figure out what role… Read more
It's Crowded in Here! A Study of Plant Population Density
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Like humans, plants can be negatively affected by overcrowding. Unlike humans, plants cannot get up and move to a new environment or explore how to utilize new resources. This experiment will explore the effects of crowding (population density) on the growth and health of plants. Read more
Veggie Snap! Modifying Bending Stresses in a Flexible Rod
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Have you ever broken a fishing rod? Or seen a treetop bend over and touch the ground (or even snap off) during an ice storm? These are examples of the effect of bending stresses on flexible rods. There are scientists who actually study this phenomenon and discover ways to prevent breakage, which leads to stronger fishing rods, building materials, car parts, and more. In this science project, you'll explore the bending stresses in flexible rods by testing asparagus stalks. Read more
A Cool Way to Make Electricity: Solar Cell Power Output vs. Temperature
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Solar cells provide a clean way of making electricity directly from sunlight. In this project you will build a simple circuit and experimental setup to investigate whether the power output of a solar cell changes with ambient temperature. Read more
Can Beeswax Wraps Replace Plastic Wraps?
Add Favorite
Science Fair Project Idea
Scientific Method
Do you ever use plastic wrap to cover a container? Did you know that it is made of plastic, which significantly contributes to the amount of waste in our landfills? There are many alternatives to plastic, and one popular product is beeswax wraps. Are beeswax wraps a suitable replacement for plastic wrap? Find out in this experiment! Read more
