Easy Science Fair Projects

For really good help with science fair projects you can have at 24 Hour Science Projects e-Book.

In this example science fair project you are going to find out what are the ideal conditions for the growth of molds on bread and what can be done to prevent the growth of mold. Molds are fungi and with bacteria they grow on organic materials and causes (or helps with) decay. So, this is one of our alternative Simple Science Fair Projects a Bread Mold Science Fair Projects

This is one of our examples of science fair projects where adult supervision is needed as heat is going to be used and because of the potential danger of the mold growing.

What you need for your science project:

• 4 Slices of bread

• 3 Sealable plastic bags, big enough for your slices of bread to fit in it

• A Pair of rubber gloves

• Tags to mark your bags with

• Pen

• A knife

• Antiseptic cream

• A piece of kitchen towel

• A small plate

• A note book

• Camera

How to do your project:

1. We are going to use three different conditions: completely dry bread, normal bread as it is and bread spread with antiseptic cream. Our problem is to find out the conditions that speeds up decay, in this case the mold growing on the bread.

2. Formulate your hypothesis on what you think will happen

3. For your control place a piece of kitchen towel on a plate, place a slice of bread on the plate and place it in a cool dry place. (Why on a piece of paper towel?)

4. Take one of your slices of bread and completely dry it out in the oven at a very low heat.

5. Let it cool down completely. (Later on you should be able to give reason why it has to cool down completely)

6. Place the cold piece of “toast” in one of the plastic bags and mark it with a tag.

7. Place another slice of bread in one of the bags just as it is and mark the bag.

8. Spread your last slice of bread with antiseptic cream on both sides and place it in the last plastic bag and mark it.

9. Now you have to leave them in a warm (not hot) place.

10. Each day you have to make your observations, write it down and take a photo of your experiment. Do not forget your control.

11. Keep this up for a week.

12. You are now ready to write your conclusion, remember to give the reasons for what has happened to your slices of bread. Include your control in your conclusion. Your control shows what happens when you do not do anything, this id how you can draw the correct conclusion about what has happened to your other slices of bread.

* Do you know why the toast had to cool down completely before you placed it in the plastic bag?

* Is there only one reason for what happened to the toast or are there more than one?

* Why did you have to place your control on a piece of kitchen towel?

Science Fair Projects Kids Will Enjoy Part Seven – Static Electricity

24 Hour Science Projects

Here is part seven of our Science Fair projects Kids Will Enjoy about static Electricity. In this experiment we are going to see how to objects that are negatively laden are attracted to objects that are positively laden. Once the objects are no longer negatively laden, they are not drawn by a positively laden object any more.

Remember for a full science project you will have to combine this whole series, so, I hope you have time to wait for them all! If not, there is a very good solution for you, go to 24 Hour Science Projects; there you will find complete science fair projects you can do in 24 hours or less! So, if you are in a hurry, go to 24 Hour Science Projects now!

Here are our science fair projects kids will enjoy:

Remember, for all science fair projects you have to make notes of everything you do, why you do it, what you are trying to prove or demonstrate and your conclusion. It is always a good idea to take photos for your exhibition.

The case of the dancing paper dolls:

What you need for your experiment:

• Two books
• A glass disk
• A metal plate
• Two books
• Tissue paper dolls about 3cm tall (cut any way you prefer as long as they not too big)
• A woolen cloth

How to do your experiment:

1. Cut out your paper dolls (about 3-4)
2. Place two books a little way apart with the metal plate between them
3. Place the glass disk over them to be over the metal plate
4. Place the paper dolls in the metal plate
5. What happens when you place the paper dolls on the metal plate under the glass disk?
6. Now rub the glass disk with the woolen cloth for a few minutes
7. What happens?
8. Why does it happen?

• By rubbing the glass disk with the woolen cloth it is loaded with electron to make it negative
• Now the disk draws the positively laden paper dolls and they are also loaded
• Now they drop down and the metal plate draws the electrons from them, once again making them positive
• Now the glass draws them again and so the dance continues

I think this can be quite a good display for your friends to admire!

This is the seventh of our short series of science fair projects kids will enjoy. Look out for the others as doing all these experiments as one will probably be the best way of doing a thorough science fair project.

Science Fair Projects Kids Will Enjoy Part Six – Static Electricity

24 Hour Science Projects

Here is part six of our Science Fair projects Kids Will Enjoy about static Electricity. In this experiment we are going to see how to a spoon, laden with static electricity, will draw puffed wheat or rice to it. Opposite to a negative and a negative “pushing” each other away as in our previous example.

Remember for a full science project you will have to combine this whole series, so, I hope you have time to wait for them all! If not, there is a very good solution for you, go to 24 Hour Science Projects; there you will find complete science fair projects you can do in 24 hours or less!

The case of the plastic spoon and the puffed wheat or rice:

What you will need for this experiment:

• A bowl of puffed wheat or rice
• A plastic teaspoon
• A wooly sweater

How to do your experiment:

1. Without doing anything to the spoon, keep it just above the bowl of puffed wheat or rice.
2. What happens?
3. Rub the spoon on your sweater for a few minutes to load it with the extra electrons until it is negative.
4. Now hold the spoon just above the bowl of puffed wheat or rice.
5. What happens?
6. Keep the spoon there.
7. Why does it happen?
8. What happens after a short while?
9. Why does it happen?

After you have done all the previous science projects, you should be able to explain what happened here. Remember you should be able to give a scientific explanation for every step and why you are doing it.
