Science Fair 2025
Ithan Elementary School Science Fair
Monday, March 3, 2025
6:00 to 7:30 pm
The goal of the science fair is to encourage student interest in science, technology, engineering and related fields.
Ithan’s science fair is a great opportunity for families to learn together.
All students are encouraged to complete a project - either a traditional experiment using the scientific method, or a "learn and explain" project (see details below). Students may work alone, with siblings, or in other groups of up to 4 students.All classes will also visit the science fair during the day on March 3, and the entire family is invited to the Science Fair in the evening.
Sign up here by Feb. 24. If you don't know the name or theme of the project yet, don't worry! Just put "TBD" on the form.
The PTO is delighted to maintain its tradition of offering ribbons and 6th year trophies. Generous donations provided by our families through our Parent Sponsorship Program help make these prizes possible!
Please consider signing up to VOLUNTEER at the fair. We need help with project drop off, event set up, bake sale donations, and bake sale table.
PROJECT DETAILS:
STUDENT PROJECT CATEGORIES (solo or groups up to 4 students)
Category One: LEARN & EXPLAIN
Are you curious to learn how something works? Is there an invention you would like to create? Explain any aspect of scientific knowledge which you have learned through research or observation. Perform a scientific demonstration that explains a concept or shows how something works.
Non-experiment projects do not need to follow the scientific method, but should be organized in approach and presentation. Each project should have a clear Introduction stating why the student chose this topic and a concise Conclusion explaining what the student learned.
