Share your enthusiasm for science by serving as a Science Fair mentor for students at Bryant Elementary School! Mentors work with a group of 4-5 students, (4th and 5th graders) to design and carry out their scientific investigations. The role of the mentor is to ask questions and guide the group in its student-driven investigation. The mentor brings ideas and perspective to aid students in the development of manageable scientific experiments and interpretation of results. With guidance from the mentor, students prepare posters displaying their results and conclusions which will be exhibited at the Science Fair Poster Exhibition on March 28.
Commitment is 1.75 hours a week, 1:15-3:00PM, for 9 weeks
