The Virtual Science Fair 2020 – Students received a science kit to use at home. Teachers reviewed the science project with students during class and encouraged all students to complete their reports using ClassKick. ClassKick is a website that allows teachers and students to interact with text in real-time and provide feedback on assignments. Students recorded a 5-minute presentation to report on their favorite science activity they completed with the kit. Then students met as a whole group to share their findings.
