In the lab this week, Kindergarteners are learning about rocks and soil, first graders are building contraptions that roll down ramps when gravity pulls them, second graders are testing properties of soil, third graders have been modelling the upcoming solar eclipse, fourth graders can tell you about vertebrates and invertebrates, fifth graders used data about the densities of different liquids to predict their behavior in a density column, and sixth graders demonstrated how unbalanced forces affect the motion of an object, and diagrammed the forces on their laptops.
You probably already know about the Oradell PTA Science Fair on April 6. But did you know that there are other science fairs for students in this area? The Bergen Science Challenge http://sciencechallenge.bergen.org/ is open to students in grades 6-8, and the grand prize winner will win $25,000. Ecybermission https://www.ecybermission.com/ is for students in grades 6-9, and also has great prizes. Google recently started a science fair for anyone between 13 and 18 years old, https://www.googlesciencefair.com/en/ . If you look online and find more science fairs, feel free to let me know about them.
