Science Fair Teacher Handbooks

Everyone has the ability to invent! This 28-minute program graphically illustrates this point as we go from an experimental bicycle race to a student INVENT AMERICA!® competition and on to an adult Invention Fair where real inventors seek manufacturing services. See electronic robot arms, a transparent refrigerator door, edible toothpicks, and even a better paper clip! If you're involved in a national invention program or have an invention category at your science fair you will find this program extremely useful. This 38-page teacher handbook is packed with information and student worksheets developed to encourage creative thinking. Included in the book is information on how to invent something, examples of different student inventions as well as adult inventions. Learn the difference between a discovery and an invention, as well as how one invention can lead to another! Use this program to help your students tap their creative potential and develop unique ideas.
