Moving on? Look for RIMS Fair and State Fair dates!!

For the 2015-2016 academic year, all 4th & 5th grade Arroyo students will conduct a science or engineering project and create a board to communicate their process. Here's a link to help understand the components and purpose behind such a great experience:

Is something being tested? Is there a variable?

...or is it just a demonstration?

Mentoring students for the Science & Engineering Fair

Start with what you have at home and in the community

Science Fair does NOT have to be expensive!

There is a universe of ideas to explore...

...the key is to encourage play with ideas and topics to develop a passion.

What is the child curious about?

Dr. Tony Wagner describes the process with "Play, Passion, Purpose" in his book Creating Innovators.

What does s/he have access to?

School support will include:

  • Parent information
  • Student lunch recess workshops (October and November)
  • Timelines and deadlines to guide student progress along the way
  • Boards will be provided to all students AFTER all work has been completed
