Title: Agnes Pflumm and the Stonecreek Science Fair
Review: I love this book! I bought it at an NSTA convention five years from the author and have used it every year since. The story is entertaining, but at the same time teaches my 5th graders about choosing a science fair topic, completing research, presenting to judges, and designing controlled experiments. I have developed activities and discussions from the suggested lesson plans in the back of the book. The most valuable part of this book is the idea that students should choose a topic about which they have a real interest. Since I began using this book, my students' projects have shown more creativity and thoroughness, and a higher level of quality than in years past.
