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.

Examples Of Science Fair Projects - Where Do I Get Good Examples Of Science Fair Projects?

Are you looking for good examples of science fair projects? Maybe you have left it too late and now you are in a panic. I know that there is help out there, and I'll try and point you in the right direction. You'll have good examples of science fair projects almost instantly.

First let us have a look at what a good science fair project is all about and then we can have a look at your options.

For a science fair project to be a good one at all, you have to follow the scientific method, you may well ask me what the scientific method is, well it consists of the following steps:

1. You need to do some research to know a little about your topic, enough to formulate the purpose of your science fair project.
2. With your research you also have to get to know a little about your topic to formulate your hypothesis.
3. You have to know what the variables are.
4. Now you have to do your experiment step-by-step, making sure you do everything right and making sure that you have a control.
5. Then you have to formulate your conclusion and prepare your display according to the rules and in such a way that you impress the judges with your knowledge of doing scientific experiments.

I think by now you are scared stiff, fortunately you do not have to be, there is help available, instantly!

There is an e-book Super Science Fair Projects It has everything you need, from the formulation of the problem to your conclusion. 45 Easy Step Super Science Fair Projects gives you step-by-step instruction including what materials you need and exactly what to do.

Within 24 hours from now you could have a complete winning Science Fair Project ... and it can be easy and fun to complete.

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.
