    In 8th grade my school did a science fair. My friend had his mom do his entire project. The local newspaper thought it was great so they had an article about it in the paper. My friend bragged about it for weeks. We aren't friends anymore.

    I had science fairs back when I was in 2nd and 3rd grade (I was living in New York, NOT THE CITY, but in the state) and they were completely optional and we only presented them in the cafeteria. I loved doing them, and one of my projects was about Tyrannosaurus Rex. If I could do another science fair again (I'm in a different state now unfortunately), I would do another paleontology presentation, but do something on one of my favorite lesser known prehistoric animals like Deinonychus or Eurypterus. If you cannot tell, I'm a science nerd, I speak science

    My school didn’t do the science fair but we had to do a wax museum. We had to choose a random historical person to research, make a notecard and remember it for presentations(with only important information), make posters, and then on the day of presenting we have to stand still until someone came up to us and we would present our information. We also had to dress up like the person we were researching about.

    In my school (Arg, by the way, so our traditions are different) we did science fairs every year until secondary school. I strongly remember one (I was an older teen, by the way) where I was assigned to take care of a colony of Bombyx mori, and while my mom hated them, I just loved to caress their backs (they use a silk thread to make their cacoons, so their bodies have the texture of silk). During the fair we had all the hatched cacoons on display (the cacoons turn yellow when exposed to oxigen) and middle scoolers thought they were cheese puffs. Those were fun times.

    for my 3rd grade science fair i put hard boiled eggs in the three different liquids. Fruit Punch Gatorade, white vinegar, and coffee. the experiment was kinda like what would happen if you put your teeth in those liquids (since egg shells are supposed to resemble your teeth) and how they would stain. the gatorade made the egg pink, coffee a light brown, and white vinegar made all of the egg shell nutrients vaporize and made the shell like puddy. i ended up in third place btw. my dad helped me.

    science fair ideas:
    probiotics vs antibiotics?
    how does the size of weals on a small toy car affect it's speed?
    if you launch a die at the same angle with the same force and starting on the same side each time, will it example: every time you launch on 5, 3 comes up?
    this one's my favorate that I would have done: do sounds sound louder if you play multiple at once, or if it lasts for longer, or if it's a a different pitch, or if it changes instead of staying one monotone sound? You'd have to pick just one of those variables though

    Science fair hack that I did. My topic every year was which popcorn brand was the most reliable. As in which brand after 1 minute, minute and 30 seconds, and two minutes left the least kernels. I wanna say every time pop secret was the best for me. I tried using the exact same project so I didn’t have to do it again, but the school would keep the projects. So I would do the popcorn experiment again. Worked every time and I always made a B or an A on it and one time I actually made it into the top 6 projects one year with 138 students in the class.

I was rushed to the hospital and apparently almost died. Apparently, I’m allergic to the Rubber Elmer’s Glue that we were required to use for the poster board, and so yeah. I hate science fairs too James. You’re not alone.

    As an Australian we did something different but very close. We did a thing called steam project (also named stem) which stands for science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics. Before when it was stem it didnt include art. Now what it is is basically where you have to create something. Like one year it was a useful thing out of recycled materials and another was making your own arcade game.

    I only did the science fair once in 6th grade. My project was on which brand of laundry detergent did a better job, tide or gain. I just took a bunch of white shirts, rubbed them in dirt and then washed and compared them. I forgot the answer but the only part I actually liked was decorating and designing my board with blue, orange, green, and yellow marker. The other stuff was annoying and tedious.

The best entries were going to be submitted to the Google Science Fair, I was really excited, I was going somehow launch a rocket with using the concept of maglev(crazy idea, I know, but what if you attached 2 really strong electromagnets on the ground & rocket, they could repel so much to probably maybe shoot it up just fast enough to reach the escape velocity of earth?), unfortunately the fair was cancelled a week later😞

    in canada science fair has has a major difference, that being leg pain because you go to your gymnasium (you do not present in front of the class) and stand there all day as students come see your exposition and ask you questions about things they found unclear all. It is an absolute hell if you do not get a bench as i never got one and had to sit through the leg pain all day.

I did “how does coding work” for 3rd grade “100 cups tower” for 4th “robotic arm” for 5th “how much longer does a double A battery last then a triple A” for 6th and “make a homemade fan” for 7th

    In 4th grade our school did a science fair. It was optional; we got about 50 students (out of 700) to participate. You got to choose what topic you did ( I did 'what surfaces produce the most mould?'). I ended up winning 2nd place so it was pretty good. I then learnt about 50% of the votes were the teachers that liked me, and 25% were my friends (like as in- I have a good work ethic or smthng- lol) I'm Australian

I then proceeded to put them on watermelons and through them off a ladder. For that I won best methodology, which means the judges enjoy violent melon extermination too.

I use a stop watch and a normal clock to measure the amount of time flow when I play video game, watch movie, or reading comic books. result is that they are all the same…obviously. i just use that as an excuse to play video game reading comicbook and watch movies

    My schools only did the science fair from 2nd-5th grade, and we had to do similar things but, we had I think two weeks to do it. But we only presented it to the school by setting them up in the cafeteria and everyone did a walk through before the judges came through. But the main difference I think is we had to write EVERYTHING out on the poster board and you only got 1 so if you messed up you were screwed.

One ran normally and the other ran like Naruto for weeks. She had everything down to a perfect science. Math 100% correct, method perfect, and presentation eye catching.

    It was in second grade.
    We did class projects where each class did a project together,we did our project on spiders because Nevada has a variety of spiders. I specifically with my friends who I'll dub Sam, Carly and Dave (two of these friends watch your videos so i don't want to give out their real name,the other passed away)
    Dave, Sam Carly and I did the wolf spider and we used my grandpa's camera to take pictures of wolf spiders that were in my backyard,and my sister helped us write a detail description of the wolf spider to go with our pictures.
    The wolf spiders aren't "common" in Nevada but they still are around.
    We had to put all our information on this big poster board.
    Everyone else had maybe two or three paragraphs on their spiders while my group had this detailed like page and a half description we had to find put on a separate poster board just to fit everything.
    Our class got third place,it was a school district thing so we got third place for the entire school district which is pretty impressive if you think about it.
    Out the end of the year I got to take the poster boards home with me, I think my mom still it.

    We didn’t have a science fair per say, we had this thing called the invention convention. It’s in 5th grade. Instead of science projects we had to make some sort of invention, present it to the rest of the 5th grade classes, and 2 kids from the grade are selected to present it at a state wide invention convention. I was a super arts and crafts kinda kid (still am tbh) I was in a massive duct tape phase at this point so I asked my dad to help me make this thing called the draft n craft which was basically a lap desk with storage underneath to hold supplies. It was honestly pretty creative and useful seeing as it was thought up in 2 seconds by a 10 year old. I was one of the 2 kids selected that year and got to go to UCONN to present it statewide. It was a pretty cool experience. Didn’t even come close to winning obviously because it’s not THAT creative of an idea but still.

      that's the reason I came to this video because in one of Grian's videos from Hermitcraft he named a bird "Ari" and I was like "Oh, that's Jaidens bird"
      Then I was like, "Wait, Wasn't grian in one of Jame's videos?

    This is a few years late, but my middle school had a year long project resulting in a final science night and class presentation. When it came time to choose my topic, I chose this battery experiment. It resulted, like yours, in no difference in battery life. I’d be happy to send you the paper if you’d like to see it.

    I have done it multiple times, and it was/is AWEFUL! My friend, did one on snails, and I forget what the thing was, but her name, was AWESOME! It was "ES-CAR-GOOOOO!!!" because it was something about her raising them.

    We had science fair in elementary school but we had to just come up with something we can do research on. One year I did a presentation on bees and I drew the different bees (worker, drone, queen) labeled the parts and presented the hierarchy, communications, etc. I got a blue ribbon and an A

    I like science fair cause I get to do a project on something I’m interested in.Last year I did cat lifespans,this year I’m doing natural disasters.Also,my school lets you do a “research project” instead of an experiment,which means you just get data from google and stuff instead of doing an experiment,so I always do those.
