YES students apply scientific and communication skills

On Wednesday, April 11 students at Yahara Elementary School presented their scientific skills to families, staff and peers at the school’s annual Science Fair.

The Fair gave students an opportunity to apply the scientific method and share the results of their research.  Earlier in the school year students selected a topic and created a related scientific question. They conducted experiments, observed and measured results, prepared a research paper summarizing their findings, and created a display to communicate what they had learned.
