The Centenary College Omega Rho chapter of the Beta Beta Beta National Biological Honor Society is proud to offer the opportunity for K-8 students to be involved in the Earth Day Science Fair at Centenary College on Saturday, April 27, 2013.
Science offers students experiences in exploration beyond the classroom to understand more about their world. Investigating a selected science topic in detail can open up new vistas and a new appreciation for not only this planet but the worlds beyond.
To assist student prepare for the science fair, please check the "Student Resources" link for instructions and suggestions throughout the coming weeks. These guidelines will give you and your student some ideas on how to create an effective project. Each document will show methods and processes that classes and families can share throughout the science fair experience, as well as what to expect from your judges. Plan to take some time every now and then to review these suggestions.
Remember that a student's real success in our science fair will not be measured by ribbons, prizes, or certificates. Students succeed by learning and understanding more about science and how scientists work. Awards are secondary. The real goal of the science fair is to stimulate each student's curiosity about the world.
We look forward to your participation in our upcoming science fair. Please email with any questions during the preparations and during the fair with your questions and suggestions. Let's work together so that our science fair will be a memorable and pleasant experience for every student.
Sincerely,
Beta Beta Beta National Biological Honor Society
