Unfourtunately, due to the Pandemic, the SMLS Science Fair will be taking sabbatical and hopefully will return in 2022! 

"Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less." -Marie Curie

The SML Science Fair is a school-wide (K-8) event. It is an outstanding opportunity to learn, create and present independent  or group research. 
 

• All students are encouraged to participate.
• Some 6th-8th grade students with outstanding projects will be asked to represent SML at the Coriell Institute Science Fair, but anyone interested in the Coriell Institute Science Fair may register for it independently.  More information about that fair can be found here.
• Need ideas?  Try sciencebuddies.org or sciencebob.com.  You can also search Pinterest, YouTube, Google, etc. 
• Projects should be limited to 36" of table space (fits tri-fold poster). More space is available upon request..
• Students are invited to use any format of demonstration; posters, structures, interviews or video.
• Students will register as individual or group (2 -3 students).
• If  you are showing an experiment, please plan to perform your experiment every 15 minutes during the fair.
• If you choose to bring in an animal, they must be kept in cages and not interact with people (i.e. hamsters, turtles, lizards, and other similar caged animals).  Animals may not be out of their cage. They must stay in their cage when inside the building.  Cages must be clear plexiglass type - not a wire cage- and must have a lid so no one can stick their fingers in. 
• Remember to bring additional supplies should your project need a " repair ."
• Presentation is a key element and each student should be able to summarize what they have learned.
• Please don't wear high heels in the gymnasium.
• Food/Snacks will be available for purchase .
