Physics Science Projects

A fun yet truly compelling science fair project is one that deals with physics. If you love some action and some experimenting, this has to be the topic for you. Make sure your display clearly speaks of your experiment as well as the important findings, so that the judges will love it. Some projects you can consider are:

•What are the fruits that float and sink in the water? What makes them float or sink?
•How can we bend light?
•How does a parachute work?

Botany Science Projects

Botany science projects are also equally interesting to consider. The flowers, the plants, and the trees may be very amusing to look at, but are very complicated to understand.
