COOL SCIENCE FAIR PROJECTS - THE POWER OF GROWING FLOWERS

FEBRUARY, 2009

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Cool Science Fair Projects - The Power Of Growing Flowers

 

This is one of our cool science fair projects that show the strength of growing plants.

 

What you need for this science fair project:

 

  • A sheet of clear plastic
  • A healthy potted plant
  • A box of paper clips
  • 2 Small boxes just a bit higher than the plant

 

How to do this cool science fair project:

 

  1. Take your healthy potted plant and place it on a windowsill that gets enough sun.
  2. Now you place the two boxes on each side of the plant taking care not to shade the plant.
  3. Lay the plastic across the boxes and let it hang down the two sides of the boxes.
  4. Make two chains that are identical with the paper clips
  5. Lay these chains over the clear plastic so that it hangs down the sides of the boxes.
  6. Arrange them evenly and mark their positions on the boxes.
  7. Now you care for the plant as normal.
  8. Check and mark the positions of the chains from time to time

 

What has happened?

 

  • Make note of what happens?
  • Measure the markings as they move up the boxes.
  • Why do the chains move up?

 

Explanation:

 

This experiment shows us how strong plants are. As the plant grows it pushes the plastic and thus the chains up. Now you can see how plants can be so incredibly strong and grow through blocks of cement and why weeds push through the sidewalk cracks to reach the light (Plants need light to stay alive and grow)

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS: HOLDING A GLASS WITH A BALLOON!

JANUARY, 2009

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Easy Elementary Science Projects: Holding a Glass With a Balloon!

In this easy elementary science project we are going to see that air presses in all directions. We are going to be able to hold a glass by a balloon inside the glass. This can even be a very good party trick. This is one of our easy elementary science projects that shows you how much fun science can be. Do get permission before you do this experiment just for in case something goes wrong and the glass breaks.

What you need for this experiment:
  • A glass
  • A balloon
How to do this project:
  1. Hold the glass in one hand and with your other hand let the balloon dangle inside the glass.
  2. Blow into the balloon. If you find this difficult it may be a good idea to get some help.
  3. As the balloon inflates, the part of the balloon that is inside the balloon will swell out and touch the sides of the glass.
  4. Continue blowing until the pressure of the air inside the balloon is so high against the sides of the glass that you can remove your hand holding the balloon and lift the glass by holding the end of the balloon.
This little easy elementary science project is not enough for a complete science fair project, but as we add other experiments that use air pressure you will gradually build up a complete science fair project.

If your science fair project is due soon, I recommend that you get yourself a good science fair e-book to help. 24 Hour Science Projects is a very good choice. In this e-book you get complete science fair projects that can be completed in 24 hours or less, so you'll be able to complete your projects in time.

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS - AIR IN SOIL

DECEMBER, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Easy Elementary Science Projects - Air In Soil

 

This is one of our easy elementary science fair projects where it is best to a camera to record your findings as it is all visual. There will be nothing for you to measure or evaluate only what you see visually.

 

The idea of this easy elementary science project is to see if there are different amounts of air in different kinds of soil.

 

What you need for this easy elementary science project:

 

  • 3 Small clear jars
  • Water
  • A camera
  • Samples of three different kinds of soil, e.g. clay, good with lots of organic matter in it and very sandy soil

 

How to do this easy elementary science projects:

 

  1. Half fill the jars with your soil samples
  2. Fill the rest of the jars with water until almost to the top
  3. Make your observations as air bubbles rises to the top of the jars.
  4. Take photos every few seconds to record your findings
  5. Why are we looking at the bubbles rising in the water?
  6. What does it prove?
  7. In which kind of soil did the most bubbles rise to the top?
  8. What does this prove?

 

Well, the more bubbles rising through the water, the more air was trapped in the soil sample. Tightly packed soil has less air trapped in it than soil with a lot of humus or other organic matter. Almost all kinds of plants tend to grow better in this kind of soil.

 

I think this experiment is one of our easy elementary science fair projects that are for the budding "gardeners" amongst our young! Enjoy!

Easy Elementary Science Projects - How The Nutrients In The Soil Wash Away!

This project is one of our easy elementary science projects that are suitable for the very small kids. It is also a very visual project and they can see clearly what is happening. For plants to grow there has to be nutrients in the soil. A problem that can happen is when it rains a lot and the nutrients in the soil wash away. In this project we are going to show how that happens. This is a good example of a science project, but for the correct scientific method and tips to help you with your display, a good science fair projects e-book is a good idea. Here are a few I can recommend:

What you need for this project:

 

  • The seeds of several lemons
  • A wide mouthed glass or jar
  • Paper towels
  • Water
  • Bits of paper towel or absorbent cotton

 

How you must do this project:

 

  1. Soak the seeds in water overnight to soften them
  2. Line the glass or jar with a piece of wetted paper towel
  3. Now you fill the center of the glass or jar with bits of pieces of paper towel or absorbent cotton.
  4. Push the seeds between the bits of paper or cotton and the outside of the jar, near the top of the jar.
  5. Pour about 1 inch of water in the glass or jar and add more as the water gets absorbed.
  6. Now you have to place the glass or jar in a warm dark place such as a closet.
  7. Leave the seeds for a week or ten days, but make sure the paper stays wet.
  8. What happens? The seeds begin to sprout.
  9. Why does it happen? Try and give a description of the seeds that contains embryos.
  10. Do these "embryos" need water to start growing?
  11. Why did we use the paper towels and not just left them in the water?

 

Explanation:

 

The seeds contain the "baby plants" that we call the embryos. These will grow into new plant if the conditions are suitable. They need water and warm air. That is why we used the blotter paper; it keeps them wet without waterlogging them. For heat we placed them in a warm dark place.

COOL SCIENCE PROJECTS

SEPTEMBER, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Cool Science Projects

 

Using fat as a light meter

 

Here is an example of one of our easy Cool Science projects that shows how much fun science can be and how easy it is to do.

 

We are going to use fat stains on paper to find out which light bulb or flashlight is the brightest.

 

What you need for this cool science project:

 

  • A piece of white paper
  • Cooking oil
  • A ruler
  • 2 lamps with bulbs of different wattages

 

How to do this experiment:

 

  1. Place a few drops of ordinary, clean cooking oil on a sheet of white paper and let it soak in well.
  2. Blot all the excess oil away so that all you have is an oil spot on the paper.
  3. Now you have to work in a dark room.
  4. Set up your light bulbs in two unshaded lamps across a table from each other so that the lamps are facing each other.
  5. Now you have to hold your paper close to the bulb on the left and move it gradually closer to the bulb on the right whilst keeping your eye on the oil spot.
  6. What happens? The spot disappears when the same amount of light falls on both sides of the paper.
  7. Why does it happen? How does that help you to find out which bulb is brighter?
  8. If you measure the distance from the spot to each bulb and the distance is not equal it means that one of the bulbs are brighter than the other. The bulb that is the furthest away from the paper is the brightest.

 

This is one of our cool science projects to show you how easy and fun it can be. You can do this experiment with flashlights as well. Ask the help of a friend to hold the one flashlight and another to hold the second.

 

Enjoy your cool science projects!

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECT - MAKING A ROCKET

JULY, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


Here is another rocket easy elementary science project:



Easy Elementary Science Projects - Another Rocket Project


Here is another one of our Elementary Science Projects using air pressure to launch a rocket. We are using another source to get our air pressure. Do take a look at our Lemon Rocket Science Project.


In this easy elementary science project we will see that compressed air has great strength.


What you will need for this experiment


  • 2 Drinking straws
  • Modeling clay
  • Construction paper
  • An empty dishwashing liquid bottle
  • Scissors
  • Tape


CAUTION: Please use caution and never launch your rocket at anyone. Adult supervision is advised!



How to do this experiment:


  1. Takes a 3 inch square of construction paper and cut it diagonally so that you have two triangles.
  2. Now you fold each triangle double and tape it to the one end of a straw so that it looks like the fins of a rocket.
  3. Cut 4inches of the other end of the same straw
  4. Now you make a small pointed nose with your modeling clay and put it on the tip of your straw.
  5. Take the dishwashing liquid bottle and cut a hole in the cap large enough to push the second straw through.
  6. Push the second straw through the hole and seal it with the modeling clay to close any gaps.
  7. Slip the rocket straw onto the second straw that is sticking out of the bottle.
  8. Now you have to point the nose of your rocket into the air away from all obstacles.
  9. Squeeze the plastic bottle
  10. What happens?
  11. Do you know why it happened?
  12. Try and explain it.


This is one of our very Easy Elementary Science Projects that you can combine with the Lemon Rocket Science Project, Holding a Balloon with a Glass and the Air Pressure and Air Weight project. Another alternative is to combine it with all the straw projects you can find HERE.

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS - USING AIR AS AN INVISIBLE SHIELD

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,



Here is a fun easy elementary science project for you to do:

Easy Elementary Science Projects - Using Air As An Invisible Shield


This project is one of our Easy Elementary Science Projects that is more for fun but, it can be used in conjunction with other experiments about air to make a complete science fair project.



Other Science Fair Projects On Air:


The Burning Candle Experiment


Air Pollution Project


Air Pressure And Weight



We all know that a newspaper cannot resist water and becomes wet and soggy very quickly if it is exposed to water. Now we are going to do an experiment where something seems to protect the newspaper from the water.


What you need for this easy elementary science project:


  • A deep bowl of water
  • A glass jar
  • A sheet of newspaper

How to do this experiment:


  1. First you have to crumple the sheet of newspaper and fit it into your glass jar tightly enough that it does not fall our when you hold the bar upside down. The newspaper must not fill the jar more that a third.
  2. Now, while holding your jar upside down, sink it deep into your bowl of water.
  3. Hold it there for about 2 minutes.
  4. Pull the glass jar out of the water.
  5. Remove the newspaper from the glass jar.
  6. What has happened?
  7. Why did it happen?

The newspaper is dry. The reason is that although the glass jar looked empty, it was filled with air and because the air is lighter than water it could not get out. This air therefore made an invisible shield around the newspaper and that is why it did not get wet.


Do have a look at our other Easy Elementary Science Projects:



Easy Science Fair Projects: The Disappearing Shell


Kindergarten Science Fair Project: Spinning Planet Science Fair Projects

Enjoy your day,


Jacob

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS: MAKING A COPPER PLATED NAIL

JUNE, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Technorati Profile

Easy Elementary Science Projects: Making A Copper Plated Nail

For the basics of this easy elementary science projects you may want to have a look at a projects we have on Science-Projects.KnackTrack, one of our easy elementary science projects using lemon juice.

In this experiment we are going to use copper coins and lemon juice to make a copper plated nail.

What you need for this easy elementary science project:

  • ½ Cup of lemon juice
  • 20 Dull copper coins
  • A small glass jar
  • A pinch of salt
  • A large clean nail
  • Scouring powder

This is what you have to do:

  1. Place the copper coins in the glass jar and cover them with lemon juice.
  2. Add a pinch of salt to the lemon juice.
  3. Now you have to let this stand for about 3 minutes.
  4. Clean your nail with scouring powder and make sure it is completely clean.
  5. Drop your nail into the jar with the lemon juice and copper coins.
  6. Now the waiting starts. You have to wait for at least 20 minutes.
  7. Fish out your nail and dry it.
  8. What has happened?
  9. Why has it happened?

Well, what has happened is that the nail now has a thin layer of copper that cannot be rubbed of. The copper coins reacted with the lemon juice to form copper citrate and this compound plate the nail. I think your friends will be very impressed with your copper plated nail.

This is a fun and easy science project, but if you want to make sure you are really doing a good science fair project it is a good idea to get an e-book to help you. I have found Science Fair Projects Made Easy to be such an e-book. Go and have a look.

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS - LEMON MOLD PROJECT

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


Have a look at this one:


Easy Elementary Science Projects - Lemon Mold Project



This science projects is another one of our easy elementary science projects where we grow mold. We have quite a few about bread molds and this is another alternative for growing mold on a lemon. It may be a good idea to combine a bread mold experiment and a lemon mold experiment and to compare the molds; it can make a very interesting display.


CAUTION: Because you may be allergic to the mold, do not touch it or breathe it in.


What you need for this easy elementary science fair project:


  • A clean empty container
  • Plastic cling wrap
  • A lemon
  • Some water
  • A magnifying glass
  • A note book
  • A pen
  • A camera
  • Lots of patience

How to do your experiment:


  1. Make very sure that your container is completely clean.
  2. Place your lemon in the container.
  3. Add a few drops of water to your container.
  4. Cover it tightly with your plastic cling wrap.
  5. Store it in a dark place like a cupboard.
  6. Every day take it out of the closet, inspect it, make notes of what you see and take a photo for your display.
  7. You will probably have to keep this up for a week or more until you have a really good growth of mold on your lemon.
  8. Now you have to explain what the mold is.
  9. Do you get different kinds of mold?

As you can see, the experiment itself is very easy. What is important though is that you do it the right way. You have to do your research before you actually start. Then you have to formulate your purpose and you have to formulate a hypothesis. Only then can you really start with your experiment. It is a good idea to know exactly what is involved in the proper scientific method. I really think that it is a good idea to get a good science projects e-book to make very sure you do everything the correct way. Have a look at Super Science Fair Projects e-book, in this e-book you will find all the help you need for a winning science fair project.


Go now and check it out, you will be impressed with all the amazing benefits of this e-book. With the knowledge you will get in Super Science Fair Projects e-book, science fair projects will never be a problem again!

EXAMPLES OF SCIENCE FAIR PROJECTS: MAKING A DELTA SCIENCE FAIR PROJECT

MAY, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


Enjoy this one:



Examples Of Science Fair Projects: Making A Delta Science Fair Project



In one of our previous examples of science fair projects we have taken a look at the destructive power of water. Now in this easy science fair project we are going to simulate the forming of a delta.


What you will need for this example of a science fair project:


  • A large, long plastic container with a border of about 6 inches deep
  • Sand
  • A trowel
  • A large jug of water
  • A brick
  • A note book
  • A camera


How to do your experiment:


  1. Fill the plastic container with sand until you have a layer of sand that is about 3 inches thick.
  2. Flatten the sand until it is smooth.
  3. Now you place the one side of your container on a brick to form a slope.
  4. Take your water and pour it in a stream on to the sand in the middle of the higher end of the container.
  5. Continue pouring until the water gradually starts to wash away a path trough the sand.
  6. What happens to the sand that washes away in this way?
  7. Why does it happen?
  8. Make notes of your observations and take photos.


If you have done this correctly the sand that has been washed away by the water gets deposited in the lower region of the container and forms a delta. This is then a model of how a delta forms in nature.



This example of a science fair project covers the experiment self. For a winning science fair project though, you have to follow the scientific method.


The scientific method consists of:


  1. Formulating the problem or purpose of the experiment
  2. Formulating a hypothesis
  3. Doing the experiment
  4. Formulating the conclusion


To help you with this I can recommend a very good science fair project e-book called 24 Hour Science Projects. In this e-book you will find complete science fair projects from hypothesis to conclusion that can be done in 24 hours or less. Some of these experiments can even be done in an hour. The examples of science fair projects you find in 24 Hour Science Fair Projects will solve all your science fair problems.

GREEN SPOT EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECT

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


The GREEN dot project! Enjoy.


Easy Elementary Science Projects: Let's learn a little more about colors - What Is Green?


Is Green simply Green? This is one of our easy elementary Science Projects that are there for some fun learning, especially for homeschoolers. Let's see what green is made up off.


For our fun kids crafts using this principle visit Fun Kids Crafts.


What you need for this experiment:


  • 1 Coffee filter cut into strips
  • A green felt tipped pen
  • An orange felt tipped pen
  • A jar with about 1" water
  • 2 Clothes pegs


How to do this project:


  1. Make a large green spot on one of the strips, about 2" from the one end of the strip.
  2. Do the same with orange.
  3. Hang both strips in the jar, secured to the side by a clothes peg, and make sure that your spot is above the water with the bottom of the strip hanging in the water.
  4. Let it stand for about half an hour.
  5. Make your observations.
  6. What has happened?
  7. Why did it happen?
  8. Did the same happen for both strips?


Well I'll tell you what happens to the green strip and then you can do it and in the comments tell me what happens to the orange strip, OK?


The green spot is gone, above the original spot the paper has turned blue and above that the strip has turned yellow. Do you have any idea why first the blue and then the yellow?


As the water dissolves the ink, it moves up. Because the two colors does not move at the same rate, they separate.


Let me know what has happened with the orange and do have a look at the craft on Fun Kids Crafts.

Enjoy your day,



Jacob

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS: YOUR DRAWING ON AN EGG

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


Another "eggy" one for you. Go through our site and have alook at all the experiments you can do with eggs. This one is a variation on the one we have for you on our page "Easy Projects"


We have many fun, easy elementary science projects involving eggs. It is amazing how much you can learn from experiments with eggs. In this experiment we are once again see how vinegar dissolves the shell but in a very fun and visual way.


What you need for this experiment:

  • 1 Glass jar, big enough for the egg to fit in
  • 1 hard boiled egg
  • Wax crayons
  • Vinegar

How to do this craft:

  1. With the wax crayons, draw a picture on the egg. Be careful not to break the shell.
  2. Place the egg in the jar and completely cover it with the vinegar.
  3. Now you leave it for several hours.
  4. Carefully dump the vinegar and cover the egg with fresh vinegar and let it stand for a few hours again.
  5. Remove your egg from the jar and carefully wash the vinegar and the wax from the egg. Remember the shell will be very fragile so work carefully.
  6. What has happened?
  7. Do you know why it happened?

What should have happened is that the acid from the vinegar combined with the calcium carbonate of the shell of the egg and it would have dissolved most of the shell. Where the painting of the wax crayons were though, the wax protected the shell from the vinegar and your drawing should still be clearly visible.


As you may have noticed we have been doing many different experiments using eggs. If you combine these, with proper notes, a good display etc. they can make a pretty good elementary science fair project. The problem is that it will take time and time is not something we have most of the time. If you do not want your home to be taken over by a science experiment for a long time, I suggest you get a good science fair projects e-book such as 24 Hours Science Projects. This e-book has complete science fair projects that can be done in 24 hours or less.

ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS: OIL POLLUTION

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


I think the results of this elementary science fair project is going to horrify you! We all have to do what we can to stop oil pollution.



Easy Elementary Science Projects: Eggs and Pollution


This is one of our easy elementary science projects to show the effect of oil pollution on sea life. (On all aquatic life.) It is horrifying to see what oil is capable of doing and this experiment will show the kids that all the worrying about oil spills in the sea is not exaggerated and that it in fact has devastating results. This easy elementary science project is also very suitable for homeschoolers.


What you need for this experiment:


  • 4 Hard boiled eggs
  • 4 Sealable plastic bags
  • Water
  • Food coloring
  • Motor oil or other wise olive oil as a substitute
  • Felt marker
  • A watch or a timer
  • Some masking tape


What to do:


1. Take your 4 bags and mark them 1, 2, 3 and 4.
2. Now you fill each bag with ½ Cup of water and ½ Cup of your oil.
3. Drop a few drops of food coloring into each bag, mix it well with the oil.
4. Take your hard boiled eggs and place them in the bag.
5. Now you remove the eggs from the bag as follows:
a. #1 after fifteen minutes
b. #2 after half an hour
c. #3 after an hour
d. #4 after two hours

6. Each time you have removed the egg from the bag, carefully peel the shell off the egg.
7. Write Down your observations.
8. You will notice that the longer the egg stayed in the oil, the more oil got inside the shell of the egg. (The food coloring makes it easy for you to see that.)
9. Remember to make accurate notes of everything you do and it is best if you also take photos of the results for your display.



Doing Elementary science fair projects need not be a problem. There are tremendous e-books available that gives you all the ideas and information you need. I find 24 Hours Science Projects very good as it gives you complete experiments from hypothesis to conclusion that can be done in 24 hours or less. This is important because it prevents your home from being taken over by the project for months on end.

EASY ELEMENTARY SCIENCE PROJECTS: LIQUID DENSITY

APRIL, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


I hope you enjoy this fun and easy elementary science project, watch out for the other to follow:



Easy Elementary Science Projects - Fun Experiments On Liquid Density


In these short, easy elementary science projects we are going to see some of the interesting things that happen because of the density of liquids. Density has to do with how tightly packed and object is. Two objects can weigh the same but one is smaller than the other, the smaller one is packed more tightly and is therefore denser than the other object. These experiments are meant to make learning fun and are also very suitable for homeschoolers.


The floating egg experiment


What you will need for this easy elementary science project:


  • A container
  • Water
  • An egg
  • Salt
  • A spoon


This is what you have to do for this easy experiment:

  1. Fill the container with enough water to cover the egg completely.
  2. Carefully place the egg in the water.
  3. What happens to the egg?
  4. Make a note of what happens.
  5. Start adding salt to the water and stirring it very carefully so as not to break the egg.
  6. Keep on adding salt until your egg starts to float.
  7. You will need quite a lot of salt, about 4 tablespoons full of salt per 1 ½ cup water to make the egg float.
  8. Now you add water to your solution again until the egg start sinking again.
  9. Keeping density in mind, try and explain what just happened.


If you worked carefully and did the experiment the right way your egg started rising because it became less dense than the water when you added the salt. When you added extra water, the water once again became less dense than the egg and the egg started sinking again.


This is one example of our easy elementary science projects. Watch out for the other fun, easy elementary science projects to follow later.



Enjoy your day,


Jacob

ELEMENTARY SCIENCE FAIR PROJECTS: BLOWING UP BALLOONS WITH VINEGAR AND LEMON JUICE

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


Here is a fun science fair projects, blowing up a balloon!


Elementary Science Fair Projects: Blowing Up Balloons With Vinegar And Lemon Juice


These two elementary science fair projects are similar and they will show you how a chemical reaction can produce gas capable of inflating a balloon!


A chemical reaction happens when molecules interact with each other and they change to form new molecules. This is a chemical change as opposed to a physical change. We will do some physical changes at a later stage.


In this elementary science fair project we are going to illustrate how an acid and an alkaline (a base) produces a chemical reaction and releases carbon dioxide that rises up and inflates our balloons.


What you will need for this elementary science fair project:


  • 2 Balloons
  • 2 Empty, clean soda bottles
  • The juice of one lemon
  • ¼ Cup of vinegar
  • 4 Tablespoons of water
  • 4 Teaspoons of baking soda

How to do your experiment:


  1. In each of your soda bottles dissolve 2 teaspoons of baking soda in 2 tablespoons of water.
  2. In your one bottle, add the lemon juice and quickly fit the balloon over the mouth of the soda bottle.
  3. In your second bottle, add the vinegar to your water and do the same with the balloon.
  4. What happens?
  5. Do you see the same in both bottles?
  6. What can be said about the lemon juice and the vinegar, what is the same in both?

This easy experiment shows us a chemical reaction between two ordinary household items. Do you know of a way that this chemical reaction is used in baking? The next time mom has a little extra time, ask her if you can bake muffins and then you can observe how the chemical reaction of the baking soda and sour milk, or whatever kind of acid the recipe calls for, makes the muffins rise during the baking process. This is a very good example of a scientific fact used in everyday living. This elementary science fair project shows you the practical importance of science in our lives.


For a good science fair project you will have to make very good notes from the beginning to the end. You have to start with your hypothesis, that is what you think will happen, then you have to take notes all the time so you can explain exactly what you did and you must end with your conclusion where you have to say what really happened and whether your hypothesis was right or wrong. It is also a very good idea to take photos of everything as you go. Make sure to have a photo of the inflated balloons as well as photos of your muffins before they go into the oven and when they come out of the oven.


This elementary science fair project is an example of a science fair project that can be done in 24 hours. For more complete science fair projects that can be done in 24 hours or less you may want to have a look at a little e-book called 24 Hours Science Projects. This e-book contains complete science fair projects from hypothesis to conclusion that can be done in 24 Hours or less.

  • 3 Paper towels
  • Water
  • Felt-tip marker
  • A bottle of nail polish

The how to:


1. Start by marking each of your plastic bags numbers 1 through 4.


2. Cut all your paper towels in two. One of the pieces you will not need.


3. Now you have to moisten 5 of your pieces of paper towels.


4. Your fifth piece must be left dry.


5. Now you have to place the towels in the bags as follows:


a) In 4 bags place moist paper towels


b) In one bag place a dry towel

c) In one bag you do not place a towel but you put some water in the bag.


6. In each bag you now place 6 radish seeds


7. Now you do the following with each bog:


i) Place one bag with a moist towel in a place without any light like a drawer.


ii) Place another bag with a moist towel in, in a light place at room temperature.


Iii) Another bag with a moist towel you keep in a place that has not light and is very cold, the freezer.


iv) Place one bag with a moist towel in, in a place that has no light and at room temperature, but cover the seeds with nail polish.


v) Place the bag with the dry towel in the light at room temperature.


vi) Lastly you place the bag without a towel in a light place at room temperature; these seeds are now floating in the water you placed in this bag.


8. Now you have to record the date that you have started with your elementary science fair projects.


9. Check all your bags twice a day and record what you see happening.


Now this is what you will see happening:


1) You will see that the seeds in bags i & ii starts to grow. (Germinate)


2) In bag vi you may see some difference in the seeds. Keep checking it and write down exactly what you see.


3) In the other bags the seeds do not start growing. Can you give a reason for this? Think about it and write down what you think, after this we are going to look at the reasons.


Seeds need very specific conditions to be able to grow.


Seeds do not need light to germinate, as they mostly germinate underground. Late on, however, they do need light to grow. You can do an experiment with this by placing the one set that has started growing in a light place and the other in a dark place, but this is not within the scope of this science fair project.


Seeds also need oxygen to be able to grow, so that is why the seeds covered with nail polish did not grow, they could not get any oxygen or any water! The seeds also need to be moist in order to be able to germinate, but the seeds in the bag with only water, were also not able to grow because they were practically "drowning" in the water. They cannot get any air and the amount of water probably will cause them to rot. Too much water is also wrong.

Enjoy your day,


Jacob

ELEMENTARY SCIENCE FAIR PROJECTS: SOME MORE EGGS

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,

Some more "eggy" fun.


Elementary Science Fair Project


Yet another fun Kindergarten egg science fair projects


This elementary science fair project is very easy and it is suitable for Kindergarten. Some adult supervision is necessary for this elementary science fair project to prevent a mess! It will also be necessary to explain to the little ones what is happening. In future blogs we will be doing a range of "egg" projects which in the end can make a complete elementary science fair project. On the other hand if you do not have the time, want to make sure you are using the correct scientific method, and want to know how to best do your display, I can very strongly recommend 24 Hour Science Projects.


In today's "eggy" project we are going to make an egg float and then we are going to try and think for ourselves why it happened.


For this elementary science fair project you will need the following:


  • 2 Glasses half full of water
  • 2 Eggs
  • Salt (the amount you will need may vary)


This is what you need to do for this elementary science fair project:


  1. Take your half full glass of water and carefully place the egg in it.
  2. Make a note of what happens.
  3. Now you start adding the salt, stirring very gently so as not to break the egg.
  4. Keep on adding salt, stirring gently and write down your observations.
  5. What is happening?
  6. Now you take your other glass of water and make it very salty by adding 12 tablespoon or more of salt.
  7. Stir in the salt.
  8. Now you have to wait until the salty water has come to a complete still stand and are not moving any more from your stirring.
  9. Now you add another half a glass of fresh water very slowly and gently to the salty water without stirring.
  10. Gently lower your other egg into this glass.
  11. What is happening?
  12. Why do you think it is happening?


In the case of the first experiment it is easy to say what is happening. The denser the water the more the uplift and that pushes the egg up. What is the salt doing to the density of the water?


The second experiment is the really fun part of this elementary science fair project. What did you see happen? If you did it correctly, the fresh water will be drifting on top of the salty water. Now when you dropped the egg into the water, it sank through the fresh water and floated in the middle on the salty water. In other words you egg sinks through the fresh water but floats on the salty water that has the higher density.


This is a short fun example of an elementary science fair project for the little ones. If you want a really good e-book to help you with doing a winning elementary science fair project, I recommend 24 Hour Science Projects. In 24 Hour Science Projects, you get complete projects that can be done in 24 hours or less. You get all the info you need from hypothesis to conclusion and the e-book makes sure you do not omit anything.


24 Hour Science Projects is an e- book and access is instant.

ELEMENTARY SCIENCE FAIR PROJECT: GROWING SOME MORE CRYSTALS

MARCH, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


Lets grow some more crystals:


Elementary Science Fair Projects


Elementary Science Fair Projects: Growing a Crystal Garden


Let’s do another easy, elementary science fair project. In this blog we have already had two experiments where we grew crystals. In this easy elementary science fair project we are once again going to grow crystals in another way. I you haven’t done the previous two you can get them on this blog on January 10 and January 27. All you need to do is scroll down.


As we have seen many rocks are formed by crystallization. Can you still remember how crystals are formed? Do have a look at the Growing Crystals blogs to refresh your memory. I also want to remind you of 24 Hour Science Projects where you’ll get all the information you need to do a winning elementary science fair project. In 24 Hour Science Projects you’ll get complete experiments that you can do in 24 hours, some in even as little as 1 hour! 24 Hours Science Projects has everything you need for a good science fair project.


Now on to our elementary science fair project


This experiment needs to be done under adult supervision because ammonium is used and it is poisonous!


This is what you’ll need for this elementary science fair project:


  • A small brick
  • ½ Cup water
  • A small bowl
  • A large container such as a measuring jug
  • ½ Cup bluing (you’ll get it at the laundry section of your grocery store)
  • ½ Cup ammonia (also from your grocery store)
  • Salt


This is what you need to do:

  1. Wet your brick in a little water.
  2. Place your brick in your small bowl.
  3. In your jug, mix together the ½ cup, ½ cup bluing and the ½ cup ammonia.
  4. Use a measuring cup and pour a little of the mixture over the brick.
  5. After this you have to sprinkle your brick with salt.
  6. Now you have to leave it for 24 hours.
  7. After 24 hours some crystals will start forming on your brick.
  8. Now you can add a little more of your mixture to keep your crystals growing.

It is of course possible to grow a multi colored “garden” by using a solution colored with different colors by using different colors of food coloring.


Now it is time to prepare your presentation. For instructions on how to do it from hypothesis right through to your conclusion with all the graphs, sheets etc. that you need, I strongly recommend 24 Hour Science Fair Projects. Doing an excellent elementary science fair project is of no use if you do not know how to do your presentation in the correct manner, which is why I recommend 24 Hours Science Projects.

ELEMENTARY SCIENCE FAIR PROJECTS: MORE ON OSMOSIS

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,


I think we are really getting int to osmosis now. I'm convinced that by now you will be able to understand this somewhat difficult experiment. I hope you have a lot of fun with it!


Elementary Science Fair Projects



Easy Science Fair Project: How much water can a disposable diaper hold?


In this elementary science fair project we are going to observe how scientific knowledge can be put to good use in our daily life. You are probably too young to know but the old fashioned cotton diapers were really not very effective. On the other hand they were probably more environmentally friendly than disposable diapers. Well, that is a subject for a later elementary science fair project; today we are going to have a look at the reason why a disposable diaper is so effective. For more help and to make sure you do everything correct I strongly recommend 24 Hour Science Fair Projects. You'll get top science fair projects with 24 Hour Science Projects, try it!


The basis of the whole experiment resolves around osmosis. During osmosis water moves from an area of high water concentration to an area of lower water concentration. In the diapers a substance manufactured by polymerization of a mixture of sodium acrylate and acrylic acid. This sounds difficult but it is not really essential to understand for our experiment. What is important for our purposes is that the gelling occurs because of the osmotic pressure of water.


Now we want to establish how much water can be absorbed by a disposable diaper. First we are going to use distilled water (it can be bought at a pharmacy or as some call it a drug store, depending on where you stay.) Secondly we are going to repeat it and use a 0.9% salt solution that is closer to a baby’s urine to see if the concentration of the liquid makes any difference. We are also going to observe whether different makes of diapers have the same absorbency and try to explain it.


For Top Results, Get 24 Hour Science Fair Projects Now!


This is what you need for your elementary science fair project:


  • 1x1x1 foot cardboard box
  • 2 Clothespins
  • A cereal bowl
  • A pair of scissors
  • A measuring cup that holds 2 cups
  • A few sets of 2 diapers of different absorbency
  • Distilled water
  • *Salt solution of 9% (see below how to make it)


This is what you have to do:


  1. First you have to remove the top and the one side of your cardboard box.
  2. In order to be able to measure the water that finally cannot be absorbed by the diaper, cut a hole of about the size of a quarter in the center of the plastic covering on the outside of the diaper.
  3. Take your cardboard box and drape the diaper, with the plastic covering at the bottom, over the top of your cardboard box and secure it with clothespins. (I know there are countries where people do not use clothespins, in that case use your imagination and secure the diaper to the cardboard box)
  4. To catch the water when it starts dripping through the diaper, place your cereal bowl directly under the hole you cut in the plastic on the outside of the diaper.
  5. Take your measuring cup and fill it with water.
  6. Now you must pour the water over the inside of the diaper covering the inside by pouring from the one side to the other and back etc.
  7. Keep doing this until the water start dripping through the hole in the outer plastic.
  8. Carefully record the amount of water that the diaper absorbed before it started leaking.
  9. Repeat with another brand of diaper with a different absorbency (as claimed by the manufacturer)
  10. Make a careful note of any possible differences.
  11. Now you have to repeat this again but, this time you have to use your salt solution.
  12. Once again record what you see happen.
  13. Try and explain the reasons for the difference in each of your experiments.


Elementary Science Fair projects are great fun and an easy way to learn the correct way of doing a science experiment. To make sure that you are using the correct scientific method and to see what the correct way is of notarizing your results and well has advice on your display, I strongly recommend and E-Book such as 24 Hour Science Projects.


Elementary Science Fair projects do not have to dump your home into chaos for months on end. As you’ve seen by the example elementary science fair projects, winning projects can be done in less than 24 hours if you have the correct information. With 24 Hour Science Fair Projects you’ll see how to do winning science fair projects with easy and using readily available supplies.


Get 24 Hours Science Fair Projects Now, Your Project Can Be Done By Tomorrow!


*9% Salt solution:


  • 9 Grams of sodium chloride (table salt)
  • 1-Quart (1-liter) jar
  • 991ml of distilled water


Combine the above and stir until the salt has dissolved in the water. Note that this is not a very accurate way of making the solution but it is good enough for our purposes.

GOOD SCIENCE FAIR PROJECT ON OSMOSIS

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,



Here is the second experiment abour Osmosis:



Good Science Fair Project: Natural water pumps



Natural Water Pumps 2



As promised last week here is another is another fun and good science fair project on water pumps. This is a really fun science fair project that gives you very visual results.



I have also very good new for all of you, Just Science Projects are up and running. They have three very good deals for you. I strongly recommend getting a good Science Fair Book to make very sure you do a winning science fair project. How you do your project, how you document it and how you do your display is very important. To make sure you get all this right, it is best to have a good science fair e-book such as Just Science Projects to help you and keep you on track.



Now on to our “Good Science Fair Project: Natural Water Pumps 2”



Science Fair Project About Osmosis



What you will need to do this Science Fair Project:



  • Two tall drinking glasses
  • Water
  • Food coloring
  • A White carnation
  • A pair of scissors
  • Some sticky tape

Here is what you need to do:



  1. First of all you need to pour some water into both your glasses.
  2. Now you have to add some food coloring to one of your glasses of water. You need to add enough to make sure that the water is colored very strong, so add enough coloring!
  3. Take your carnation and split the stem lengthwise for about half of the carnation’s length.
  4. Now you have to secure the stem at the end of your split with your sticky tape to prevent the stem from splitting any further.
  5. Now you have to place the glasses next to each other, as close as possible.
  6. Place the one half of the carnation’s stem into the glass with the clear water and the other half in the colored water.
  7. If your carnation will not stay upright, lean it against something to keep it from falling over and lifting out of the water.
  8. Leave your carnation in the water for a few hours.
  9. Observe what happens very carefully.
  10. What do you see happening?
  11. Why is it happening?
  12. This is where you have to give an explanation of osmosis and why it happens.
  13. For record purposes it is also a good idea to take photos before, during and after you have completed your experiment.

Once again, I strongly recommend a good Science Fair Projects e-book such as Just Science Projects to help you and to make very sure you do everything in you experiment correctly.



Enjoy this Fun Science Fair Project!

NATURAL WATER PUMPS (OSMOSIS, TREES)

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,

I hope you'll enjoy this first article about osmosis:

An Easy Science Fair Project On Natural Water Pumps (Osmosis)

 

For this science fair project we are still on the theme of trees. In this one we are going to look at the way trees manage to take up water, through its roots, to the highest branches. You can try sucking up water or any other drink through a very long straw and you will find it very difficult. Make your own long straw by joining together straws and try it.

 

Now our task with this easy science fair project is to demonstrate the way trees manages to pump hundreds of pints of water a day. This process is called osmosis. We are going to use two very easy experiments to demonstrate the process of osmosis. The first one we are going to do in this article and the next one in the following article.

 

The potato osmosis experiment

 

This is what you’ll need:

 

* One large potato

* A ruler

* A chopping board

* A peeler

* A knife

* A teaspoon

* Two shallow dishes

* Water

* Sugar

 

This is what you need to do for this science fair project: (Please be careful with the peeler and knife, smaller children should let an adult help.)

 

1. Carefully peel your potato on your chopping board.

2. Now you have to cut the potato in half.

3. Slice of the rounded part of both halves so that you have a potato that can lie stable in    your dish.

4. With your teaspoon you now have to scoop out a hollow in each potato half.

5. Now you have to place each potato half in a shallow dish.

6. Fill your shallow bowls with about ½ inch of water.

7. Now you also have to fill each hollow, in each potato, half full with water.

8. To one hollow you now have to add about ½ a teaspoon sugar.

9. Cover your potatoes and leave them for one day.

10. After a day you can make your observations.

11. What has happened?

12. Is the levels of water in both hollows still the same?

13. If not, what is the difference?

14. Why do you think it has happened?

15. Does the higher concentration of the sugary water have anything to do with what has happened?

 

This experiment shows us how osmosis works. If we think about our trees again; the water inside the roots has a higher concentration of sugar as the water on the outside. Through the process of osmosis the tree draws water from the soil, where the concentration is lower, to the inside of the roots, where the concentration is higher, and that is how the tree pumps the water from the soil to the leaves at the top.

 

Keep an eye on this blog for the next article following next week!

SCIENCE FAIR PROJECT: PHASES OF THE MOON

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,



Here is a really fun science activity for you. Little kids will be able to do it with a little help from an adult.



A Fun Science Activity Simulating The Phases Of The Moon



The moon circles around the earth and the journey takes about a month. The moon does not have any light of its own and we only see the moon because of light from the sun reflecting from it. As the moon circles the earth the sunlight illuminates different parts of the moon. This is why the moon seems to take on different shapes or “Phases” during the month. When it is full moon the moon is completely lit up and it happens only once a month.



What we are going to do is simulate it and see why it happens.



This is what you’ll need:



  • A football (soccer ball) or beach ball
  • Glue
  • Glue Brush
  • A glass
  • Silver paper or foil
  • A pair of scissors
  • Reusable adhesive
  • A torch
  • A friend to do this project with


This is what you need to do:



  1. Do this project in a room that can be darkened.
  2. Wash and dry the ball thoroughly.
  3. Now you have to paint glue all over the ball.
  4. Rest it on a small bowl to keep it still.
  5. Now you have to cut silver paper or foil into large square sheets.
  6. Whilst trying to keep the paper as smooth as possible, wrap up the ball in the paper.
  7. This now represents your moon.
  8. Place a small piece of reusable adhesive under the ball (your moon.)
  9. Place your moon on a table, with the adhesive keeping it in place and preventing it from rolling of the table.
  10. Now is where the friend comes into the picture.
  11. Let your friend stand at the one end of the table and shine the torch with a strong beam on your moon.
  12. Now you have to go and stand at the opposite side of the table.
  13. With the main lights out, look at your moon.
  14. Now you have to gradually move around the table whilst still looking at your moon.
  15. The moon is still being lit up on the one side by the torch.
  16. You will see the different shapes it takes.
  17. These shapes represent the different phases of the moon.
  18. Can you name the phases?
  19. Try to illustrate the phases for your project.


In this project your “moon” kept still and you moved around it. This was only to let you see the effect. In real life, of course, the moon circles around the earth whilst the earth circles around the sun. Try and explain why that has the same effect on the appearance of the moon as your circling your “moon,”



To do a really winning Science Fair Project you need to know what the correct scientific method is. You also need to know how to do a good science fair project and the steps you need to take. You also need to know how to make your hypothesis and how to record your findings correctly. To make sure you are on the correct path I recommend Super Science Fair Projects E-Book.

EARTH WORM SCIENCE FAIR PROJECT

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,



Have you ever wondered what the soil is made up of and how it happens. Today we are going to look at the role Earth Worms play in the process.



Easy Science Fair Project: Having a look at soil



Do you know what soil really is? Do you know how soil is actually formed? Well today that is what we are going to look at.



Soil is formed by decaying vegetable matter, mineral grains and pieces of rocks. We are going to have a look at the part that earthworms play in the decomposition process.



Other forms of decay that plays a role are:



  1. Weathering, a process where rocks are broken down.
  2. Chemical weathering where minerals are dissolved by water.
  3. Physical weathering caused by burrowing animals.
  4. Attrition is a physical weathering that happens when wind-blown particles rub against each other.


For fun you can tray and think of ways to turn the above into a science fair project. For help with science fair projects you can also get yourself an e-book such as “Super Science Fair Projects” to make very sure you are doing everything right.



Now for our project where we are going to examine what soil is made up of.


This is what you will need:

  • 1 Large plastic bottle
  • 1 Small plastic bottle
  • Scissors
  • 6 Earth worms (you may have to go digging for them! Ask an adult to help you.)
  • Some rotting leaves
  • A piece of black paper
  • Sticky tape


This is what you have to do:



  1. First you have to cut the top of, of the large bottle.
  2. Now you have to place the small bottle inside the large one. You have to make very sure that the gap between the two bottles is evenly spaced right around the small bottle.
  3. Now you have to fill the gap with layers of soil and sand up to about 2inches from the top.
  4. Press the soil down lightly.
  5. The earth worms need to be handled very gently. Place them on top of the soil.
  6. Now you have to cover the earthworms with the rotting leaves.
  7. Cover the bottle with the piece of black paper.
  8. Remember that you have to keep the soil moist at all times. If the soil dries out the earth worms will die.
  9. Now you have to wait for a few days.
  10. After a few days, remove the paper and see how the worms have tunneled away from the light into the soil and how they have dragged the leaves into their burrows.


Try and explain why you think this is important. How do the worms tunneling into the soil help with enriching the soil?



For this project you need to read up on the theory that you are trying to illustrate with your experiment. You should not have any problems with finding the information. For more help with Science Fair Projects I recommend and excellent e-book such as “Super Science Fair Projects.” This e-book will take you from the very start up to your final display for the science fair. I strongly recommend “Super Science Fair Projects”

GROWING CRYSTALS AGAIN, SCEINCE FAIR PROJECT

JANUARY, 2008

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,



Lets grow some more crystals.

This Science fair Project can be done as part of our previous experiment, the growing crystals form sugar and washing soda, Science Fair Project.



Here is your growing crystals from salt Science Fair Project.



Let’s Grow some More Crystals

In a previous experiment we grew crystals from sugar and from washing soda (sodium carbonate.) In this experiment we are going to grow them from salt (sodium chloride.) After you have completed this experiment you can compare the crystals you grew from the different substances, and record what you see. You’ll find that the crystals alone is not enough to reliably determine the kind of mineral, to identify a mineral you need more information, but the crystals gives us a good idea of how the minerals are formed.



We know already that crystals are formed when the atoms of a mineral are arranged in a specific, orderly structure. Certain minerals are made up of only one kind of atom and they are called native elements. Other minerals consist of more than one kind of atom held together by mutual attraction. Gold, which is a native element, only contains gold atoms. Salt, that we are going to grow our crystals from, has sodium and chlorine atoms that are held together by mutual attraction.

For growing your salt crystals you need:



  • 2 Cups of hot tap water
  • A Spoon
  • 2 Pencils
  • 2 6-inch lengths of strings
  • 4 Tablespoons of rock salt
  • Your note book


This is what you have to do:



  1. Add 2 tablespoons of the salt to 1cup of the hot water and stir it until the salt has completely dissolved.
  2. Tie one of your pieces of string around one of the pencils and rest the pencil on the cup of salty water with the string dangling in the salty water.
  3. Repeat the steps above with the other cup of hot water.
  4. Now you have to leave one of your salt solutions in a hot and sunny spot.
  5. Keep the other solution in a cooler and shady spot.
  6. Observe what happens to the solutions and the strings over a few days and make meticulous notes.
  7. Accurately describe the changes in the solutions as well as the strings dangling in the solutions.
  8. Why do you think the crystals start to form as the water evaporates and become more salty?
  9. Do you think the rate of evaporations will have an effect on the size of the crystals?
  10. Why do you think it is so?
  11. Does it have anything to do with the rate of evaporation of the water being different?


Explanation:



As the water starts to evaporate the water becomes more salty. We then get what is called a saturated solution. If the water evaporates even more it cannot hold all the salt anymore and crystals start forming. If the water evaporates slowly (your solution in the cool place) large crystals forms because of the grouping of the atoms in a few large crystals. If the water evaporates fast it activates the grouping of atoms in several small centers of crystallization. Why do you think that happens?



Remember as with all science projects, keep meticulous notes and give an explanation why it happens. To make sure you are following the correct scientific method, it is a good idea to get a good e-book such as 101 Easy Science Projects to help you. This e-book is suitable for all grades and will make sure you follow all the correct scientific procedures for winning science fair projects.

WHY ARE PYRAMIDS SO STRONG? SCIENCE EXPERIMENTS.

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Easy Science Projects



Why is a pyramid so strong?



Many thousands of years ago people built huge pyramids. The oldest pyramids were probably built by the Egyptians and it was started almost 4,600 years ago. Only as little as 600 years ago there were pyramids built in Central America. Building pyramids were a long and very difficult task and it took thousands of people up to 50 years to complete one!



With this experiment we are going to find out why pyramids are so strong, and that is of course the reason why they were built. You’ll see that a cube or a rectangle is not as strong.



For investigating the bases and heights here’s what you’ll need:



  1. Non-hardening modeling clay.
  2. A plastic modeling knife (Adult supervision is needed here).
  3. A ruler.
  4. A book.



What you have to do:

With the modeling clay build two cubes more or less 3-4cm. the two blocks has to be exactly the same size and that is what you have to use the ruler for, t



Measure them and make sure they are exactly the same size.



Now you have to reshape one of the blocks into a square-based pyramid. Remember to keep the base the exact same size, this is crucial for what we want to illustrate here. Make sure that you now have a cube and a pyramid with the exact same size base.



We now know that because they were originally the exact same shape and size that they have the same volume (let an adult explain this if you do not quite understand this.) Measure the pyramid with your ruler and you’ll find that the pyramid is three times taller as the cube and it is very strong and stable.



Now to demonstrate the strength of a pyramid here’s what you’ll need:



  1. 20 Large plastic drinking straws.
  2. Reusable adhesive.


Now this is what you have to do:



To do this experiment you are going to have to make two models, a cube and a square-based pyramid.



First you have to make your cube out of large drinking straws and reusable adhesive. First make your base and then complete the cube with more straws and make very sure your cube is even and that each face of the cube is the same size. Ask and adult to help you if you have any problems with the measurements.



To make your pyramid, you have to start with the base make the pyramid with another 4 straws.



Now to test the strength of your two structures:



Start with your cube. Gently push down over the center of your cube with your hand. Now move your hand gently to one side whilst still pushing down gently. You’ll feel the cube giving way and starting to collapse.



Now for the pyramid. Do exactly the same as above with your pyramid. You’ll feel the pyramid is much stronger and it does not collapse.



To record your experiments and to make sure you use the right scientific method it is a good idea to get some help and advice it might be a good idea to get a science fair e-book to help you. I can very strongly recommend 101 Easy Science Projects.

GROWING CRYSTALS SCIENCE PROJECT

Visit Our Squidoo Lens!



Hi Everyone,



Welcome to my Science Fair Project Blog. Please feel free to add your comments.


Fun Science Project: Growing Crystals



The tiny particles of everything around are called atoms. Crystals again are formed by atoms arranged in a repeating pattern. Because of this the crystals have a fixed outer shape. We are going to grow crystals.



This project is suitable for elementary school students, but because we use heat, they have to do it under adult supervision.



Growing crystals from a sugar solution.



What you will need:



Water

A measuring Jug

A saucepan

Sugar

A tablespoon

A wooden spoon

A glass jar



What you have to do:



Heat up two cups of water until hot but not yet boiling.

Using the table spoon you now have to add sugar to the water until no more sugar will dissolve into the water.

Now you have to stir the solution very well and leave it to cool.

When the solution is cold you have to pour the solution into your glass jar and place it in a safe place where it will not be disturbed.

Take a look at your solution every day and make a note of what you see.

This project can take quite a long time as it can now take the solution to be left for days or even weeks before the crystals begin to grow.

Note the size of the crystals when it starts growing.

You will notice that the longer you leave the solution undisturbed, the larger your crystals will grow.

Try to think why this is happening.

Make notes of everything you see and look for the reasons why it is happening in the library or on the internet. A simple google search should give you all the answers you need.



Now we are going to grow crystals from washing soda:



What you need:



A jug

Hot water

Washing soda (sodium carbonate)

Spoon

Bowl

Straw

Cotton thread

Paper clip

Hand lens



What you have to do:



With the help of an adult pour one cup of hot water into a jug.

Add a spoonful of the washing soda.

Stir until it all dissolves into the water.

As with the sugar keep adding washing soda until no more will dissolve into the water.

Now you have what is called a saturated solution.

Now you have to pour this solution into a bowl taking care to leave all undissolved washing soda in the jug.

For a crystal to start growing, it needs somewhere to start growing.

Using your cotton, attach the paperclip to the straw.

Make sure the distance from the straw to the clip is about two thirds of the depth of the bowl with your solution.

Now you balance the straw on top of the bowl with the paperclip dangling in the solution.

With time, the evaporating water will form crystals on your paperclip.

After a few days when enough crystals have formed remove the clip and crystals from your solution.

Carefully rinse them under the cold tap.

With your hand lens have a look at them.

You will notice that all the crystals have the same shape.

Remember to record all your findings as well as all your steps in your project.



To make sure you are using the correct scientific method and keeping the correct records and logs, it may be a good idea to get a good science fair project e-book such as: 101 Science Projects. This E-book is suitable for all the grades from grade K- grade 12.
