Science Investigation/Science Fair

My topic is: The Weather (Planet Earth and Beyond)

Aim:

  • What do you want to find out?
  • Why do you want to do the experiment?

My aim is to predict a long term and/or a short term weather in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch, by looking at the weather patterns last year at this time of the year, e.g. first week of June.

Hypothesis:

  • What do you think will happen?
  • Make an educated guess from the background research you have done

My hypothesis is that I can predict the weather in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch correctly, by looking at past weathers.

Equipment:

  • Find out and list all the experiment and resources you need

1. Resources like internet, news, books etc. about weather (recorded weather in the past 12 months.

Method:

  • Give the instructions clearly and concisely to your experiment in order, so that some one else can repeat it.
  • Number each step, and begin each step with a verb, e.g. place, mix, cut.

1. Research and collect data on weathers in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch in the Winter/Summer months.

2. Organise my data, and look at weather patterns, e.g. temperatures, rain falls, etc., in each city.

3. Predict an accurate weather for each city for certain day and/or week from your data.

NEW Science Fair Idea!

My new Science Fair idea is... -drum rolls-

Predicting the weather by looking at the weather of the last 3 month in each region! ...it would be an easier Science Project!

Do YOU have any suggestion?

My Science Project

In Room 7, we're going to do a Science Fair Project! We brainstormed what we are
we going to do for our Science Fair, I have several random ideas by my favorite is
designing an invisible Tic-Tac-Toes game using Microsoft Visual C++ 2010.

It will be so much fun designing the game and testing it on several people!
Firstly, I have to design a Tic-Tac-Toe game, and of course, testing it to make sure
that it work. Next, I have to come up with a formula to make sure that my program
will always win so I can experiment it on people.

My project will be in Technology Development section, so I think that it will be a really unique
project and yet understandable. Plus, I don't really need many materials, I only need:
my laptop, Microsoft Visual and CMD. My project will be a challenge but it will not be an
impossible project because I already have some basic knowledge of computer/program designing
and I guess I sort of have a "passion" for it.

I just need to think of some questions to go with it, what do YOU think?
