To do with dirt? Does it have to be directly to do with dirt? In that case, you can test which brand of soil plants grow best in. Get a few plants or seeds (they must be the same species and size) and different soil brands. Put each some of each soil brand in a different flower pot. Put a plant/seed into each pot and measure how much they grow each day. I'm not quite sure how much it'll cost though; that depends on what you have at home.

A classic, but great visual experiment is sucking a hard boiled egg into an erlenmyer flask. It is done by using the principles of the kinetic theory of matter.\nAnother cool project might be doing something with dry ice. Find a place that you can get dry ice and do fun stuff with it, like create smoke, put bubble solution in water and then drop in dry ice to make bubbles that, when you pop, let out white smoke.\n\nAnother idea might be to do some cool colorful reactions. Make some dye molecules or something.\n\nHope one of these ideas works for you.

I just helped my daughter with her science project. We made an electromagnet. Very easy to build and you can get buzzers, lights, and battery holders a your nearest hobby Lobby. you can also get toggle switches at the local hardware store. Mount it all on a nice piece of wood and your in business. by the way, my daughter took home first place!

The following link has some good ideas for different projects.  \nhttp://www.all-science-fair-projects.com/category0.html\n\nAlso, the following link might help you set up a science fair display board if you have to have one.\nhttp://www.sciencebuddies.org/mentoring/project_display_board.shtml\n\nAn easy, but unique, project for a science fair entry is to test different types of materials for fire resistance.  My daughter used wool, cotton, satin, silk, rayon, nylon, and polyester.  All that is really needed for the experiment is the different materials and a candle with a small flame.  Make sure that you make your science board really neat and legible and clearly state your hypothesis and your observations.  Then, write a conclusion about what you learned from your experiment and whether or not your experiment proved your hypothesis.  Good luck!

Well I recomend Tornadoes. They made a great project for me ^^ U can actually MAKE a tornado in ur classroom WIHTOUT that dinky water bottle trick! It was a great project. Another good one is Mice and shape rocognition. U put together a maze with portals in the shape of triangles, circles and squares, and see if u can train the mice to recognize that the triangles will always lead to the food instead of what they naturally assume(circles) E-mail me for further details on the Tornado Project which I HIGHLY recomned! happiest_phantom@yahoo.com

i'M IN SIXTH GRADE, AND A GOOD SCIENCE FAIR TOPIC WOULD BE "WHICH SUBSTANCE CONDUCTS ELECTRICITY BEST". iT IS REALLY EASY TO DO AND YOU CAN HAVE LOTS OF GRAPHS. FOR EXAMPLE I HAVE 21 GRAPHS. AND MY WHOLE ENTIRE BOOK IS 93 PAGES LONG. \n\nHOPE i HELP YA!!

I'm guessing the project needs to be an experiment and not just a demonstration.\n\nWhat area of science are you expected to work in? Are you allowed to use live subjects? \n\nPhysics:\nHow does the length of a string affect the period of a pendulum?\nHow does the density of a material affect the speed of sound?\n\nBiology:\nHow does the color of a light affect the growth of a plant?\nHow does caffeine affect a rat's ability to learn?\n\nAnother thing you might do is Google science projects or go to the library and look for a book.

Procrastination makes science projects much more exciting! Suggest that you go with something that can be done at home with easily available products in a relatively quick time period. A perennial favorite is: Which paper towel is stronger when wet? Get a bunch of paper towels of various brands and a bunch of marbles or coins to use as weights. See which paper towel can hold the most weight. You need to rig up something to hold the paper towels while you keep adding the marbles or you'll need extra hands to hold the sheet. See the link below for one way of doing it. Like I said, this is a perennial favorite because it's cheap and easy. It may not get a prize, but it will get you through. Hopefully you have a digital camera to get pictures to put on the display board. Good luck. (I've raised four kids with more science projects than I care to remember.)

Use a very catchy and/or clever title, and put a demo in front of it.  Demos are good because they will draw people in and allow them to interact with your project.\nUsing eye-catching images and bright colors certainly won't hurt.  \nGood luck with your science fair project!
