Be a part of the first annual Lake Norman Elementary Math Expo

							Be a part of the
Lake Norman Elementary Science Fair!!!

Who:          All K-5 students are invited to participate in the LNE Science Fair.

What:         A Science Fair is an exhibit of projects related to science.
              It is a chance for students to complete individual or partner projects to stimulate
              interest in science.
              Projects will be judged by grade level at the school level and finalists in grades 3-5
              will move on to the district level Science Fair.

Where:        Lake Norman Elementary

When:         December 18, 2012- during the school day

Why:          The purpose of the Elementary Science Fair is to offer students the opportunity to
              complete a project about science as it applies to everyday life. Students are
              encouraged to look within personal interests, contacts and applications to identify
              a scientific concept to investigate or a problem to be solved with the support of
              science. Completing a Science Fair project gives students the chance to work
              beyond the level in the regular classroom and an experience a sense of pride that
              comes with creating something original.

How:          Students complete a science project accompanied by a researched written report,
              oral presentation and a display board to be judged on the day of the Expo.
              SEE THE LNE WEBSITE FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND THE RUBRIC.
