I’m gearing up to start my science project soon and would love your suggestions! I’m in second year (Irish) and had a few ideas, but my teacher mentioned they were too complex. I’m looking for something more manageable. I did something similar with geography but focused on a different topic. I’m open to any ideas you might have—thanks in advance!

The Unexpected Origins of “Scotland Forever!” It’s amazing how seemingly random moments in middle school can lead to enduring memories and inside jokes. One particular incident from my sixth-grade days perfectly encapsulates this. During recess, my friends and I were excitedly heading to the playground when a conversation took a surprising turn.

My Class Drama
Class Drama Okay, so I need to vent about the ongoing drama in my class. There are three kids—let’s call them L, E, and E2—who seem to argue every single day over the tiniest issues. Their constant bickering has even made my girlfriend, M, upset. Then there’s the WhatsApp group chat that our teachers had […]
Here are some simple yet interesting science project ideas suitable for a second-year student:
Plant Growth Experiment: Investigate how different types of light (natural light, LED light, or fluorescent light) affect the growth of plants. You could use small pots and some easy-to-grow seeds like beans or radishes.
Homemade Volcano: Create a mini volcano using baking soda and vinegar. You can experiment with different shapes or sizes of the volcano and observe the reactions.
Water Filtration: Build a simple water filter using materials like sand, gravel, and charcoal. Test the effectiveness by filtering dirty water and comparing the results before and after filtration.
Balloon Rocket: Use a balloon, string, and a straw to create a balloon rocket. You can measure how far it travels with different sizes of balloons or by changing the weight it carries.
Solar Oven: Make a simple solar oven using a pizza box, aluminum foil, and plastic wrap. Test how well it can cook s’mores or heat up food on a sunny day.
pH Indicator from Red Cabbage: Create a natural pH indicator using red cabbage juice. Test various household liquids (like lemon juice, baking soda solution, etc.) to see how their acidity or alkalinity varies.
Egg Drop Challenge: Design a contraption to protect an egg from breaking when dropped from a height. You can experiment with different materials to see which design works best.
Static Electricity Experiments: Explore static electricity with simple items like balloons and small paper pieces. Test different materials to see which create more static charge.
Choose a project that interests you, and don’t hesitate to consult your teacher for any specific guidelines or limitations. Good luck with your project!
