They provide wonderful opportunities for children to examine and explore a host of scientific questions and a wealth of science topics. They expand classroom concepts into the daily lives of students and underscore the impact science has in all our lives. An individual science fair project can be a presentation of an experiment, a demonstration, a research effort, a collection of scientific items, or a display of a scientific apparatus. It represents the efforts of a student's long-term investigation into some area of interest and provides a way for the student to showcase the results of the investigation.
