Dear
Parents,
Assalam
Alaikum,
Your
child has been invited to take part in the Abraar School Science Fair scheduled
for Wednesday, February 20th, 2013. This exciting event encourages
students to think like young scientists. In the next few weeks, your child will
design a science project using the scientific method to solve a problem. In
this activity, students will have the opportunity to develop skills in creative
thinking, problem solving and communication (oral and written).
Your
cooperation is appreciated in encouraging your child and monitoring his/her
progress along the way. Your support is the key to a successful project, but
please do not allow your involvement to extend any further in order to assure
equity and promote student learning. Guide your child whenever and wherever you
can. It is important that the final project reflects student individual effort
and design. Keep in mind also that a successful project can be completed for
under $15.00
Students
will be given instructions and guidelines (handouts) during class time as well
as help during the various stages of their projects. Although most of the work
will be completed at home, students will be able to use the science lab
whenever possible. For suggestions on helping your child through this process,
see the website at www.free-science-fair-projects.com.
Although
participating in the event is already a reward in itself, we like to offer
recognition (in the form of a prize) to the top 3 students for their excellence.
We would appreciate your generosity in this regard by helping us cover the cost
of the prizes. If you are able to help with a financial donation, you may give
it or send it to Sr. Naida or to myself.
May Allah
reward all of you for your generous contributions and support!
For
any question, please email me at the address below
Jazakum
Allah Kheiran for your cooperation,
Tr. Amina
