•Pick Your Topic. Choose
something that interests you. Ideas might come from hobbies or problems you see that need
solutions. Be curious!
•
•Research Your Topic. Find out as
much about it as you can. Go to the library, search the web. Observe related events. Gather existing information and talk to professionals in the
field.
•
•Make a Timetable. Choose a topic that can be completed in the amount of time you have. Use a calendar to identify important dates. Allow
plenty of time to experiment and collect data. You may have to repeat the
experiment several times. Leave time
to write a report and build a
display.
–I will supply a timeline for any one who may need the help
•
•Plan Your Experiment. Once you have
a project idea, write a research
plan. This plan should explain how
you will do your experiment.
