It is insufficient merely to teach science as a body of facts. This approach can be unbearably dull for students who possess the talent but look the fascination for the principles or concepts of science: For those who could do well if properly guided, but only "properly guided."
It would be useful to involve as many students as possible in the actual practice of science. This is the point of science fairs -- to engage the interests of our students -- to introduce them to the scientific process -- to encourage our students to understand science and see how it works outside their classroom -- to see how scientists investigate and learn about the world in what we live. Science fairs have the potential to be one of the most exciting parts of their education, especially in science.
Our students' participation in a carefully crafted science fair can be the starting point for self-initiated investigations into the world around them. More important, science fairs offers your students an enjoyable and worthwhile look at the wonders of science -- a look that lasts beyond their projects and their schooling.
