Science Investigation Posters

Each student will design a science investigation. Either an experiment or a systematic observation and then make a poster about it to be shared on Science Day, March 9th. The posters are due Wednesday, March 7th. Here are The Poster Guidelines. And here is a Rubric for the Poster. We will be working on these outside of class during this week. All the investigations should be finished and all the data gathered by this weekend, so that we can make the posters on March 5th and 6th.
