The Three Falls Elementary school Science Fair was Thursday, April 23, 2009. Kristi and Cameron both worked on a project using the scientific method. Kristi wanted to find out if microwaved water was bad for plants. She watered six different plants: two with water that had been microwaved and then cooled; two with water boiled on the stove and then cooled; two with regular tap water. She thought the microwaved water would be bad on her plants, but her experiment proved her hypothesis incorrect! After three weeks of daily watering her plants, the microwaved ones looked the best.
Cameron buried different kinds of garbage after guessing which ones would be good (decay) and which ones would be bad for the earth. After ten days, he uncovered the garbage and discovered that most of his predictions were correct!
Kristi and Cameron both received a ribbon and a certificate for their participation in the Science Fair. They had to talk to three judges and explain their project and conclusion. It was a GREAT experience for both of them!
