It's time for the Third Annual Sandburg/DCS Science Expo!

The objective of the Science Expo is to have fun while exploring aspects of science with a hands on approach. This is open to all students at Sandburg/DCS Elementary. Group projects are strongly encouraged as we do have limited gym space. So grab some friends and make a science team.

When?
The Science Expo will be held on Thursday, March 15th. Participants will set up their projects in the morning. Each class will have the opportunity to come through to view the projects and talk to the scientists between 1:00-3:25PM that afternoon. Scientist will come back in the evening from 5:00 – 6:30PM to share their work with parents and siblings.

Project Guidelines & Resources:
Before you start your research, please read the project guidelines carefully, they will help guide you as you choose your topic. If you feel stuck for an idea there are lots of resources to help.
