Students Awarded for Science Fair

Lubavitcher Yeshiva of Ocean Parkway in Flatbush held its annual science fair on Thursday, after much anticipation on the part of its students.

Each grade was assigned a topic of research, and students were given three weeks to produce something that they had personally produced. Topics for investigation ranged from the 5 senses and the brain to the explosivity of volcanoes (a much-cherished topic among the boys).

In all, sixty students produced projects. The students, together with many proud parents, packed into a crowded auditorium for the fair, where the projects were installed onto previously-arranged tables and made available for public viewing, accompanied by their creators. Later, each student was given a chance to present their work on microphone to the crowd.

As a reward for their efforts, all participating students were treated to fun and games at Prospect Park and a barbeque. Additionally, all students received an award. For the students who excelled, whether in the effort expended or in the genius of their projects, special prizes, such as binoculars, cameras, a set of monopoly, a gameboy and a microscope, were awarded.

The Science Fair was organized by Rabbi Levi Rose, with the help of the entire dedicated staff and teachers.
