Science Fair Project Research Paper

Science fair projects are right up my alley. I have been participating in science fairs since I was nine years old. My dad is a biology/chemistry major, and his knowledge in science has been extremely helpful over the years in my school career. With his guidance, I am able to come up with thousands of ideas to experiment for my projects.
Experimenting and going through trials with my science projects have always been a blast. My first year completing a science project, I did a "cloud in a bottle." Going through trials to create a cloud in a bottle were tricky, but in the end it all worked out and I received an A. I sometimes get frustrated if I don't do an experiment right or it won't work, but just like my English teacher, Mrs. Miller, said, "You have to fail to succeed." All my projects have …show more content…
My dad is an expert when it comes to using power tools. Learning how to hammer in nails, use power tools, and paint are all good life skills to have.

For a hypothesis, we were going to see if the whole dog house could withstand two-hundred pounds on top of it. For the three trials, I had my dad stand on different spots on the roof. As I predicted, the doghouse withstood each trial. In the end, I didn't get to compete in the science fair competition, but spending time with my dad and learning life skills made up for it. In conclusion, it is not all about the first place, second place, and third place. Learning new things, experimenting, and having fun is what it's all about. If it weren't for my dad and his knowledge in science, I wouldn't have been able to come up with creative ideas for my science fair projects. I'm can't wait to pick up my next rubric and starting experimenting this
