  1. How to Soar with Science A Guide to Preparing a Terrific Science Fair Project Debbie Lipham Science Lead Teacher, West Meade Elementary

  2. Title The Title must reflect your Problem (Question)

  3. Fly, Fly Away

  4. Problem/Question • Separate from the Title • In the Form of a Question

  5. Question Which material will allow the plane to fly the farthest?

  6. Hypothesis Tells what you think will happen and why

  7. Hypothesis I think the plane made from tissue paper will fly the farthest because tissue paper is light and will keep the plane in the air longer.

  8. Research Use at least 2 Resources • Internet Sites • Books • Encyclopedias

  9. Research • 50 Nifty Paper Airplane Patterns by F.L. Why • World Book Encyclopedia “A” • www.designaplane.com

  10. Experiment/Procedure Include: • A list of Materials • Step-by-Step Procedure

  11. Procedure • Make one airplane from each of the six materials • Fly each plane three times • Measure the distance flown • Record the data

  12. Data Collection • Handwritten notes taken during the observation of your experiment • Written on paper or in a journal

  13. Data Chart

  14. Analysis Data in a graph, table, or chart

  15. Flight Log

  16. Conclusion • Was your hypothesis right or wrong? • How can you tell by looking at your data? • What would you change, if anything, in your experiment if you were to do it again?

  17. Conclusion My hypothesis was wrong. I can tell because, according to my data and bar graph, the tissue paper plane only flew 5 meters, but the poster plane flew 10 meters. Next time I will try some other designs to make my planes.

  18. Presentation Present all the parts of your Science Fair Project attractively on a display board
