We have identified a very resourceful web site full of great ideas for gardening projects.  The site is called the SCHOOL GARDEN POTPOURRI OF IDEAS and includes suggestions for growing various types of plants, adopting a plant and keeping a journal on it, researching your state garden products, making a root view box, collecting soil from different spots, and many other interesting ideas.  The ideas were compiled by Amanda Vanhoozier, Gardeners in Community Development. 

Science 4 Kids!

Here is an exciting source of great science project suggestions and helpful knowledge from the Agricultural Research Service (ARS).  ARS Science 4 Kids! presents information about science projects, agricultural careers, resources for teachers including clever quizzes, and even a Spanish language version of all content.  An explanation of what a science project is supposed to accomplish precedes a list of ideas grouped into chemistry, botany, environmental sciences, health, microbiology and zoology.  Lots of graphics and animation like those above and below, make this a fun-learning experience.

Welcome to Mr. McGregor's Garden!

Did you know Beatrix Potter was a scientist? She was one of the most important researchers of her time! Ms. Potter, as we know from her books, was a wonderful artist. She incorporated her art into her scientific studies, too! What do you think might have been her special area in science? Try to find out! (Hint: It was something to do with things that grow in or on the ground area. )

The WWW Virtual Library:
Science Fairs

This Library page, from the USC collection, is an attempt to provide a single comprehensive list of every science fair accessible through the World Wide Web, whether of global or local scope.  This document is part of the World-Wide Web Virtual Library. Information is categorized by subject.  Many of us are familiar with science fairs organized by our own schools or local communities, but are not aware of the many science fairs designed to invite participation from students in many locations, states and countries.
