Mamaroneck Avenue School's Annual Science Fair

Mamaroneck Avenue School's Annual Science Fair video

 


The Mamaroneck Avenue School PTA has been holding its annual fourth and fifth grade science fair for about a decade, offering students the chance to strut their scientific stuff.
This year’s fair has one more showing Tuesday night at 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in the Mamaroneck Avenue Elementary School gym, where more than 100 students worked alone or in groups to create about 70 science projects.
The PTA offers an initial research session for students where they have access to a computer to investigate their projects. Students then give a one and two minute presentation on the project, and are given poster board to create a project display.
The PTA aims to get all children involved, even those who may get less school support from home, by sending lots of information on the fair in both English and Spanish.
They hope that as many students as possible participate, and that their parents attend the fair to see how projects are done, and how a students and their parent can improve future projects.
The PTA relies on volunteers to help run the annual event, if you are interested in joining the PTA click here for the MAS PTA website, which also has infomration in Spanish.
