Discover Innovation: Join the Classical Conversations Science Fair Friday in Aurora!

Science Fair in Aurora!

The Classical Conversations Community in Aurora, Wisconsin, is hosting a Science Fair on Friday, February 7, at the Aurora Free Church. Everyone is welcome to join and see the creativity of young scientists.

Doors will open at 6 p.m. The event is a great way to celebrate the hard work of the students. At 6:30 p.m., the participants will present their projects and answer questions from the audience.

Some exciting project titles you can look forward to include “Castle Crusher,” “Cool and Refreshing,” “Impenetrable Lego Walls,” “Oil Flow,” “Self Absorbed,” “Paper Weight Power,” “Muffin Mountain,” and “Polluted Poultry.” Each project showcases the students’ understanding and application of scientific principles.

There will also be refreshments available after the presentations.

The judges for the fair come from various education and science fields. They include Elizabeth Benz, Debbie Sage, Keith Maule, Jim Hill, Erik Johnson, and Dr. RJ Tacia. Their expertise will help recognize the students’ efforts and innovations.

Kathy Wilson, who tutored the seventh- and eighth-grade students, expressed the value of the experience. She mentioned how the students gained a lot of knowledge about the scientific method. “I encouraged the students to choose projects that sparked their interest as they navigated their exploration of science,” she said. “Studying science allows students to understand how scientists think and appreciate the design of the universe.”
