We started talking about the science fair today. Although students are not required to enter th science fair, I’d really like to see many of our classmates choose to take on this project outside of class! They can work with a friend or on their own. I recommend http://www.sciencebuddies.org as a very helpful science fair website. More >

I love science, to me it’s fun. At first, I didn’t like it, but now that I learned about it I like it. When I first learned about science, it’s like I had a instant connection with it. I hope when somebody reads this they will take a better look at science.
