My name is Emily and I did The Human Body for my Expert Project.
I have been very excited and hard working for my expert project.
I learned many things about my expert project! But one of my favorite things that i thought was very exciting was that there are 100,000,000,000 (or one hundred billion) neurons in your body. That is just such an interesting thing to know that there are MORE than that in your WHOLE body! So... that really interested me!
But yet again, I am not going to be doing a expert project next year.
So I have some idea's for my math fair. For the science fair, I want to study electricity.
For the math fair, I have not yet decided.

I picked this topic because I wanted to learn more about them.
I made a model of a pirate ship, and I got information from the North Carolina Maritime Museum.
I learned that taking on a project like this one is a big responsibility.
I plan to do my expert project on spies, because my grandfather was a spy for the cold war.

Angel - German Shepherds
My topic is on German Shepherd I'm not so sure why I chose this topic but mostly because I wanted my topic to be a dog and that was the only breed I could think of at that time.
I did a power point presentation a 3-D model a 3-D board an interview with a vet.
I learned that they could live up to 12 to 14 years old.
Some might even be blue or liver (brownish grey). I don't believe that that is possible.
I was hoping to work on the economy next year so that I could help them so they'll reward me with money.

I chose this project because I think that dinosaurs are a very interesting animal.
I think one of the coolest things that i did for my project was that i went to the science museum and interviewed one of the people that worked there at the museum in Greensboro.
I think that in order to complete this project I would suggest to start on it early and work on it on the free time that you have and try your best.
I wont be able to do this project again because I am going to middle school, but in 6th grade, I think that my science project would be on roller coasters and my math fair project would be on exponents.

Hanna B. - Mummies
The topic of my project is mummies. I choose this topic because I thought mummies were cool.
In my project I did a 3D model of an ancient pyramid. I wrapped a barbie doll in cloth and put corn starch on the cloth so the cloth would stay hard and also sprayed hairspray on it. I took a box for the tomb and printed pictures for the walls. I also had to write a report on Howard Carter and King Tut.
One thing I learned was it takes a lot of hard work to complete a project of this size.
Next year I will not be doing an Expert Project but I will be doing a Math Fair Project and Science Project. I do not know what I will be doing them on.

Hannah E. - Egypt
My Expert Project is on Egypt.
I chose Egypt because, I'm from Egypt and I want to teach people about Egypt.
I made my very own Book of the Dead. I made the Book of the Dead because, I think people want to know about Egypt. The Book of the Dead is just simply listing a whole lot of Egyptian Gods.
The one thing I learned from doing this project, is that if you know something really well, you might be missing some really important information.
I want to do my next Expert Project on Penguins. I would choose penguins because, there are several species and their my favorite animals.

Chelsea - Pomeranians
My topic is on Pomeranians.
I chose this project because I have a Pomeranian at home and I thought it would be cool to learn a lot more than I already knew.
What I did with my project was I went to the Vet and asked them certain questions on the care of Pomeranian. It was a cool experience. I also did a lot more like essays and stuff like that.
I learned that if you leave your project until the very last minute you get stressed out.
For the math fair I hope to do my project on abacuses and for the science fair I hope to do my project on magnetic forces.

Sadie - Dolly Parton
Hi! I am doing Dolly Parton for my Expert Project.
Dolly Parton is my music idol and is a very good role model because she was not always so rich and popular.
One of the things I did with my project was to take and Angel Food Cake and put icing on it. It was a Dolly Parton record cake! It is so cool and the fun part was that we got to eat it the next day.
I learned that I am a very busy bee and am not organized with projects! Next year at NAMS I will do it earlier!
Next year for my math fair project I would like to learn about gases, pie and more mathematical reasons of sports!
This year I am also doing a Math Fair project with Emily and we are doing patterns!
Hope you all see my Expert Project!!

Maggie - Stars and Constellations
The topic of my expert project is stars and constellations.
I choose this topic because I used to love looking up at the stars. I love finding Virgo, Orion, Medusa's head and many others. Also I find the many mysteries of space exciting and scary.
One of the things I got to do was put together a huge model consisting of spray paint, sticks, glue, and pictures.
One thing I learned is that I need to start earlier and get things done instead of just starting a lot of stuff.
I want to do pie (3.14) for the math fair and growth of plants with different types of liquids for the science fair next year.

Aidan - Robotics
I chose this project because I've always been interested in robotics.
The main thing was a robot I made. It was a programmable Lego NXT. It took me a lot of time. It was hard but fun.
We don't have one in 6th grade but we do have math and science projects.
For my math one I'll do it on Albert Einstein and for science I'll do nuclear power.
Parris - George Lucas
The topic of my project is George Lucas.
I chose this project because ( I believe) George Lucas is a very amazing man.
While researching Lucas I discovered he was a D+ slacker in high school.
I also was able to watch the Indiana Jones series but only backwards! I was able to divide my board between: Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and just George Lucas.
In order to complete a project of this size you must be prepared to work, work, work.
I'm not able to do an expert project next year but for the science fair project I plan to do illusions and for my math fair project P.E.M.D.A.S.

I chose to study Indians of Randolph County.
I chose Indians of Randolph County because I think Indians are interesting.
I went to Town Creek Indian Mound for Eastern Woodlands Day. My mom and I learned a lot about how Indians lived. I even got to try out some of the tools they had. I think times are easier today.
I learned that doing a project this big can be frustrating.
Next time I want to do my report on bees because there was a hive on my trampoline.

I researched people who were involved, and wrote essays on those people and what they did.
I learned when you complete a project this big that you really learn more in depth about the topic.
Next time, I hope to study the history of fashion items, what they are used for, and when they became important to people. I would like to do this because both of my sisters have been to places involved in fashion, such as New York City.
