Where do you get the tools you need to create a science fair project in biology? In this book students, parents, and teachers are introduced to key concepts in science: the scientific method, experimental design, the structure of laboratory reports, graphing tools, and standard lab processes. The ten biology experiments include: time required, objectives, scientific background, materials and procedures, analysis, vocabulary, and resources. Worksheets with keys ensure students understand main take-aways. What makes this book unique are the prompts and suggestions that follow leading students to design their own science fair projects. Labs examine the effects of lighting on plants, allelopathy, and competition among seedlings; Daphnia experiments in ecotoxicology; salinity and pollution effects on brine shrimp hatching; antimicrobial and antifungal properties of garlic; bacteria in alfalfa plants, and agarose gel electrophoresis using plant extracts to examine genome size. Supplementary materials include tips for science fair success, the metric system and links for purchasing supplies.
