The fair relates directly to the students’ use of controlled studies, or experiments, in the sciencecurriculum, conducted using the scientific method: research question, hypothesis, procedure, results and conclusion.
“Many thanks to the students, fifth grade teachers who took the time inclass to be sure their students were organized and completed their studies in class, Ms. Kathleen Muldoonand Ms. Pauline Quinones, who played integral roles in the organization and preparation for the fair, and most especially to Ms. Donna Iennaco, science lab CTA, who worked tirelessly to pull it all together," principal Ken Levy said.
