The classic guide to science fairs, recommended by the International Science and Engineering Fair This revision of the classic reference on how to do a science fair project features step-by-step instructions describing 50 award-winning projects from actual science fairs, along with dozens of helpful illustrations. There is also a complete guide to putting together a unique winning project, including sections on choosing a topic, collecting and organizing data, and presenting the project at the science fair. This outstanding revision also includes all the latest rules, updated resources sections, and a list of 500 suggested science project topics suitable for grades 7 and up. Julianne Blair Bochinski (Westport, CT) is a former science fair contestant, award winner, and judge, as well as the author of the two previous editions of The Complete Handbook of Science Fair Projects. She is now an intellectual property law attorney and a member of the board for the Connecticut State science fair.
