CHC NEWS
The Community Homeschool Center Science Fair is ON for 2021!
Purpose of doing a science fair-
The purpose behind us putting together a science fair/carnival is to give the homeschool community an opportunity to be involved in one of the best learning experiences a student can have. One of my personal visions for organizing and putting this together is to encourage Christians and Believers like myself to make sense of the world God created and be able to communicate that to the world. We are desperate for scientists who can investigate and communicate science discoveries in a way that honors God and gives Him the glory for what He has already done.
Benefits of doing a science fair-
a. Science Fair projects takes the knowledge from books and curriculum and makes it real where they can experience the wonder of discovery.
b. Doing a science fair project can begin to build confidence in themselves.
c. Students learn how to gather information and decide what is important
d. Students learn how to communicate clearly what they learned from the experience.
e. Science Fair projects can foster a love for learning and investigating which is a common goal in the homeschool world.
A science fair can be a spark that could lead your student into investigations and projects that can earn scholarships and prizes regionally, nationally and internationally.
Important Dates:
Project Approval Date is Friday, March 26th
Registration Fees are Due by Friday, April 9th
The Science Fair will be held on Friday, April 30th from 9:30-1pm
Christi Smith and I will be organizing this event while Science Between the Pages will be sponsoring this event. Science Between the Pages is a small business my husband (Kenneth Fleming) and I are working on together to proclaim God's Excellencies through Science. I will have a Science Fair tab on our website with all this information too. Here is the link
https://www.sciencebetweenthepages.com/spring-science-fair-2021.html
Project Approval Date: Christi and I would like to start approving projects anytime between now and March 26th. Participants should submit a research question or problem for their project. If your participant is in elementary school they have a choice of doing a science experiment/investigation or a science demonstration (explanation of a science phenomena). At this time, we might ask you questions to clarify what your project is exactly in order to help set your participant up for success.
For elementary projects (K-6th) email Nicole at
nicole@sciencebetweenthepages.com
For middle school/high school projects (7-12) email Christi at

The Science Fair will be Friday, April 30th from 9:30am-1pm
On that day, we will need judges to judge the science fair. I would really appreciate any available volunteers with some science background. The more judges we have, the faster and less exhausting it is for our judges. We will need judges for both elementary, and middle school high school projects. If you are a parent with a science background and willing to judge, you can but you won't be able to judge your own student's project. Another judge will have that responsibility.
Also, on the day of the science fair, we will need help with
-
Tables! Every participant needs to bring their own table. We have some the CHC will let us use, but really we just need to bring our tables
