We are so glad you are interested in being a part of the A.E.S. 4-H Science Fair! In order to plan for our Fair, we need to know for certain if you will be participating by Friday, February 14, 2015. If you choose to enter, please fill out the form on the last page of this packet. You can also find copies of these forms beside Mrs. Ranson's classroom. Give the completed forms to your teacher or to Mrs. Ranson.
Dates to Know:
Friday, February 14th: Deadline to return registration form
Thursday, March 6th: A.E.S. Science Fair-judging starts at 8:30 a.m. and lasts all day. Bring your project board to school!

Now you need to get busy thinking about what kind of experiment you would like to do. Deciding on your experiment may be the hardest part of the entire process. If you choose to do something that involves change over time (plant experiments, for example) you should get started right away! Here are some websites for ideas.
