How to prepare, plan and research your science fair project

Science fair projects can be stressful for students, for teachers and for parents, but they don't have to be. Check out this educational two-part video to see how to take some of that stress out of the science project building, so that you can have more fun with the project and learn something along the way.

The first thing people do is scream, then they grab every book they have to find an experiment to save them, then there's searching the Internet, but perhaps the first thing you should do is sit back, relax and think of what you want to get out of the science project. Do you want to get it out of the way, do you want to win the science fair or do you simply want to learn something?

When you figure all of the above out, it's time for you to start forming your hypothesis and turning that school project into a reality.
