well my son has to do a science fair project and instead of doing the typical valcano, like most the kids in his 3rd grade class.... So he picked a bristle bot..... it was fun looking up the info and stuff about them and i have all the materials to make a couple, though i need to pick some different batts as the ones i got just a min or so.... so my question is he needs according to the teacher a title page whch according to the sheet needs... puropose, acknowledgments, a table of contents, the problem, research, and a hypothesis, then the experimentation which needs materials, procedure, data results. and finally a conclusion... so im not asking for the answers i guess but a how to come up wth the answers.... im not that great with this stuff so i need help, can someone help and thanks in advance

If it's your kid's project--let your kid do it! If you still want to help read up on the scientific method; it's really cool and everyone should know about it. If you're worried about it, or your kid's comprehension of it, talk to your kid's teacher about it. If you're not comfortable talking to the teacher, librarians are cool, too. They'll be able to point you at a couple of good resources for kids science projects and how to format them. That said, a simple electronics project like a bristlebot should be a good starting point for a science project, but your kiddo will need to decide what "problem" he's solving and what his hypothesis is.
